Capo 3rd fret
[Intro]
D G Am D
[Verse 1]
D Am C D
the stakes are in the meadow . . the fields are overgrown
D Am C D
the winds of change are blowin’ through the place that I’ve called home
D Am C D
they’re diggin’ at the edges . . to build the power line
Am C D D G Am D
same old story . . but now the story’s mine
[Verse 2]
D Am C D
so build a fire & throw in . . the papers and the past
D Am C D
no need to try and save it now . . it’s never gonna last
D Am C D
it’s a starry night . . the moon is bright . . let’s call the old owl in
Am C D
let him know we’re leavin’ . . say goodbye old friend
[Chorus]
D Am C D
goodbye to the years here, they have flown
D Am C D
goodbye to the only home I’ve known
D Am C D
the wheels of the world are rollin’ thru
Am C D D G Am D
And if this door is closing’ . . I guess I’m rollin’ too
[Verse 3]
D Am C D
for 14 years my family . . walked these crooked floors
D Am C D
40 years before my father opened up the doors
D Am C D
a stony stand . . it all began 300 years before
Am C D
what story is beginning, if this one is no more?
[Chorus]
D Am C D
goodbye to the years here, they have flown
D Am C D
goodbye to the only home I’ve known
D Am C D
the wheels of the world are rollin’ thru
Am C D D G Am D
And if this door is closing’ . . I guess it’s time i’m gone
[Bridge]
C G Am
feels like a wave that can’t be stopped
C G Am
a coming day . . my heart will drop
