Their lives ran in circles so small, they thought they'd seen it all And they couldn't make a place for a girl who'd seen the ocean {c:Chorus} But those memories of East Texas and those pine-green rolling hills Covered in the springtime with wild daffodils Sitting in those Piney woods, playing my guitar Thinking back on the roads I'd come, thinking I had not come that far {c:Chorus} # # Submitted to the ftp.nevada.edu:/pub/guitar archives # by Ugo Piomelli # 7 November 1992
