Gentle On My Mind Tab uke di Glen Campbell

Intro:D


D                      Dmaj7          D6
It's knowing that your door is always open
         Dmaj7           Em
And your path is free to walk
     Em               Emmaj7            Em7
That makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag
              A                   D
Rolled up and stashed behind your couch
         D               Dmaj7
And it's knowing I'm not shackled
   D6                  Dmaj7
By forgotten words and bonds
        D                   Dmaj7           Em
And the ink stains that are dried upon some line
     Em               Emmaj7
That keeps you in the backroads
       Em7          A
By the rivers of my memory
     Em             A            D
That keeps you ever gentle on my mind




         D              Dmaj7
It's not clinging to the rocks and ivy
D6               Dmaj7            Em
Planted on their columns now that bind me
    Em            Emmaj7
Or something that somebody said
Em7                     A            D
Because they thought we fit together walking
          D               Dmaj7             D6
It's just knowing that the world will not be cursing
   Dmaj7            D               Dmaj7              Em
Or forgiving when I walk along some railroad track and find
            Em            Emmaj7
That you're moving on the backroads
       Em7          A
By the rivers of my memory
        Em                A            D
And for hours you're just gentle on my mind



          D                   Dmaj7
Though the wheat fields and the clothes lines
         D6               Dmaj7          Em
And the junkyards and the highways come between us
    Em                 Emmaj7        Em7
And some other woman's cryin' to her mother
           A                D
'Cause she turned and I was gone
  D                  Dmaj7             D6                 Dmaj7
I still might run in silence, tears of joy might stain my face
        D                Dmaj7            Em
And the summer sun might burn me 'til I'm blind
    Em              Emmaj7        Em7            A
But not to where I cannot see you walkin' on the backroads
       Em             A            D
By the rivers flowing gentle on my mind




  D             Dmaj7            D6
I dip my cup of soup back from a gurglin'
          Dmaj7            Em
Cracklin' cauldron in some train yard
   Em                 Emmaj7
My beard a roughenin' coal pile, and
  Em7              A             D
A dirty hat pulled low across my face
        D                       Dmaj7
Through cupped hands 'round the tin can
  D6                  Dmaj7            Em
I pretend to hold you to my breast and find
            Em               Emmaj7
That you're waiting from the backroads
       Em7          A
By the rivers of my memories
     Em           A            D
Ever smilin' ever gentle on my mind
