Boulder To Birmingham chords
Emmylou Harris 1975
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boulder_to_Birmingham
Capo III *
I don't want to hear a love song
I got on this airplane just to fly
And I know there's life below me
But all that you can show me
G (Gsus4 G *)
Is the prairie and the sky
And I don't want to hear a sad story
Full of heartbreak and desire
The last time I felt like this
Dsus4 G (Gsus4 G *)
I was in the wilderness and the canyon was on fire
And I stood on the mountain, in the night and I watched it burn
I watched it burn, I watched it burn.
I would rock my soul in the bosom of Abraham
I would hold my life in his saving grace.
I would walk all the way from Boulder to Birmingham
If I thought I could see, I could see your face.
Well, you really got me this time
And the hardest part is knowing I'll survive.
I have come to listen for the sound
Of the trucks as they move down
Out on ninety five
And pretend that it's the ocean
coming down to wash me clean, to wash me clean
Baby do you know what I mean
I would rock my soul in the bosom of Abraham
I would hold my life in his saving grace.
I would walk all the way from Boulder to Birmingham
If I thought I could see, I could see your face.
If I thought I could see, I could see your face.
