Intro: C G D Em

C                    G
 They both met in the midnight sky,
D              Em
 Got lost in each other's eyes,
      C              G                Am7
 Then threw away the map and lost the key,
 C                 G
 God sent them the first two kids,
 D                   Em
 One named Fire, the other one Wind,
          C               G                Am7
 With a note that floated down for them to read.
              C                 G                D
 It said 'You asked what it was like up here for Me.'

                         C  G
 Mother Earth and Father Ti-ime,
 D                 Em          C  G
 Fell in love over Appalachian wi-ine,
 D                     Em                C  G
 Hit a rough spell and almost lost their mi-inds,
 D                      Em                C  G
 Raised a little hell before they fell in li-ine.


 C                    G
 Fire came out with a restless soul,
      D                  Em
 That only got worse as he got older,
        C         G             Am7
 'Til finally he got too hot to tame.
 C                 G
 Time said 'Son I know it's hard but,
D                     Em
 You're breaking your Momma's heart.'
     C                      G                   Am7
 And Fire looked up through tears that made the rain,
                    C            G           D
 He said 'Why is it everything I love I set aflame?'

                         C  G
 Mother Earth and Father Ti-ime,
 D                 Em          C  G
 Fell in love over Appalachian wi-ine,
 D                     Em                C  G
 Hit a rough spell and almost lost their mi-inds,
 D                      Em                C  G
 Raised a little hell before they fell in li-ine.

 C                    G
 Wind was born to the open sky with a,
D                 Em
 Bad temper and a wandering eye,
        C               G              Am7
 That kept him on the run for most his days.


 C                   G
 Earth said 'Listen, hear my child, see,
D             Em
 I used to run that wild,
            C              G             Am7
 'Cause it's hard to put a finger on the pain,
        C              G               D
 But son you can't outrun a thing like shame.'

      C                  G
 Then Time and Earth got on their knees,
     D                    Em
 And prayed 'Dear God, oh can't You see?
     C                   G
 The Fire's too hot, the Wind's too cold,
     D                    Em
 And loving them is gonna kill us both.'
      C                    G
 Then God reached down and took their hands,
 D                      Em
 Dried their tears, and smiled and said,
         C                 G                Am7
 'That's kind of what it's like up here for Me.
       C                G              D
 Yeah, loving them will cost you every-thing.'

                         C  G
 Mother Earth and Father Ti-ime,
 D                 Em          C  G
 Fell in love over Appalachian wi-ine,
 D                     Em                C  G
 Hit a rough spell and almost lost their mi-inds,
 D                      Em                C  G
 Raised a little hell before they fell in li-ine.
