Em D C Em
1.Pussywillows, cat-tails, soft wind and roses,
Em D C Em
Rain pools in the woodland, water to my knees,
Am D G Em
Shivering, quivering, the warm breath of spring,
Em D C Em
Pussywillows, cat-tails... soft winds and roses.
Em D C Em
2.Catbirds and cornfields, daydreams together,
Em D C Em
Riding on the roadside, the dust gets in your eyes,
Am D G Em
Revelling, disheveling, the summer nights can bring,
Em D C Am Em
Pussywillows, cat-tails...soft winds and roses.
Em D C Em
3.Slanted rays and coloured days, stark blue horizons,
Em D C Em
Naked limbs and wheat bins, hazy afternoons,
Am D G Em
Voicing, rejoicing, the wine cups do bring,
Em D C Am Em
Pussywillows, cat-tails... soft winds and roses.
Em D C Em
4.Harsh nights and candlelights, woodfires a-blazin',
Em D C Em
Soft lips and fingertips resting in my soul,
Am D G Em
Treasuring, remembering, the promise of spring,
Em D C Am Em
Pussywillows, cat-tails, soft winds and roses.
A golden oldie great from Kraziekhat!
