THE LOWLANDS - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band (featuring Jaime Hanna and Jonathan McEuen)
C#m A E
I'm headed for the lowlands would you please direct my way
B C#m
The train is leaving shortly there's no time for de-lay
C#m A E
She told me she'd be waiting I'm not so sure she is
B C#m
I heard that there's another man who claims that she is his
[CHORUS]
C#m B C#m
The lowlands were my home when I was but a child
B C#m
they will be my deathbed when I've passed my time
C#m A E
I remember one summer day the clouds began to build
B C#m
We gathered the cattle that had scattered cross the fields
A E
Well it started to rain and continued several days
B C#m
The river over-flowed and the crops all went to waste
[CHORUS]
C#m B C#m
The lowlands were my home when I was but a child
B C#m
they will be my deathbed when I've passed my time
C#m A E
You know that I'm no failure through my victories are few
B C#m
I'm trying my best but there's too much here to do
A E
That girl I love once told me I made her feel se-cure
B C#m
It's hard to think I've been replaced. Nothing does en-dure.
