Verse 1:
     C majorC
 On the first day that I saw you

 Walkin' home in your muddy boots
  G minorGm               FF
 'Cross the empty fields at harvest time

 Hummin' a familiar tune

 I stopped and sang with you

 We watched the yellow moon rise

 Later on outside your fence
E minorEm
 We shared a little dance
G minorGm             FF
 I knew I loved ya even then

 We watched a storm go by

 It's been that way ever since

Oh babe it's sure been a whirlwind

A augmentedA twirlin' twister touchin' down on the ground
   C majorC
In a dozen little sleepy towns

Blowin' like a gale full of rain clouds and thunder
      C majorC
Without hearts full of hunger

 There were babies died and babies born

 Flood and drought and world war
G minorGm                 FF
 We saw the worst years and the best
F minorFm
 In every town another chance
C majorC
 Tryin' to build a winning hand
D7D7                   G7G7
 Even when the cards were stacked against


Verse 4:
     C majorC
 Oh and I remember why we dance
E minorEm
 Gentle as a passing a glance
    G minorGm                FF
 The warmth of your breath against my cheek
    F minorFm
 Then hearin' that loud thunder roll
C majorC
 On and on we strolled
G7G7                C majorC
 Went racin' home down rainy streets
