Redbird - The Whole World Round
INTRO: Am
I heard my neighbour's rooster crow
Early in the day
G
I heard his axe beyond the woods
Am G Am
And now I'm bound away
For some men love the city lights
Some men crave the town
G
I'll be bound for the lonesome woods
Am G Am
And there I'll settle down
CHORUS:
Fiddle and a bow and a firelight low
You can hear that lonesome sound
G
I'll leave behind my troubling mind
Am G Am
And go the whole world 'round
The red squirrel leaves when the grey squirrel comes
The eagle nests alone
G
A hundred miles from a wagon track
Am G Am
Is where I'll build my home
CHORUS:
Fiddle and a bow and a firelight low
You can hear that lonesome sound
G
I'll leave behind my troubling mind
Am G Am
And go the whole world 'round
INTERLUDE: Am G Am
I've seen the old man whittling wood
I've seen the streets of town
G
I'll pack my goods for the Arkansas woods
Am G Am
And there I'll settle down
G Am
And there I'll settle down now
CHORUS:
Fiddle and a bow and a firelight low
You can hear that lonesome sound
G
I'll leave behind my troubling mind
Am G Am
And go the whole world 'round
G
I'll leave behind my troubling mind
Am G Am
And go the whole world 'round
OUTRO: Am G Am
