Cheryl Wheeler - Little Road


CAPO: 2nd Fret


INTRO: C majorC FF E minorEm FF E minorEm C majorC

         FF        E minorEm
How can there be trouble in this world?
     FF        G+G
With the colour in these hills
  FF      G+G
The blue October sky
   FF   C majorC     FF        G+G
This little road that winds along the river

C majorC        FF        E minorEm
Dusty barns and tractors in the fields
  FF           G+G
And families sit in front yards
  FF         G+G
Or stand outside the churches
FF         G+G
Kids are throwing footballs
  FF        G+G
And pulling carts of pumpkins
    FF    C majorC   FF     G+G   C majorC
And the morning sun is sparkling on the water


           FF        E minorEm
How can there be such trouble in this world?
     FF         G+G
Where the mountains roll so gently
FF         G+G
Deer graze on the hillsides
FF         G+G
Birds chat on the phone lines
  FF     C majorC     FF         G+G
The whole wide world's a prayer for Sunday morning


  C majorC         FF       E minorEm
The geese inspect the stubble in the fields
  FF       G+G
And all along the roadside
FF        G+G
Families stop to wonder
    FF      G+G
At the new October morning
   FF         G+G
And a red tailed hawk is circling

   FF        C majorC
And a father hugs his daughter
    FF         C majorC        A minorAm        FF
And an old man holds the car door for his wife to come and see
     C majorC         FF
Then they turn and smile at me
       DmDm   G+G        A minorAm
How can there be such trouble in this world?


 FF         C majorC         FF      G+G
I know of course, I know, that this is not the only picture
 FF         C majorC          FF ~ G+G
I don't of course, I don't, know what to do


INSTRUMENTAL: FF C majorC FF ~ ~ G+G FF C majorC ~ ~ G+G  C majorC FF E minorEm C majorC


              FF        E minorEm
But the road keeps winding through the afternoon
    FF        G+G
And it doesn't know the sorrow
   FF       G+G
Or an inkling of the shadow
    FF        G+G
Of the rage across the water
  FF       G+G
The hatred and the horror
    FF          C majorC        A minorAm      C majorC
It just wanders through this valley with the river by its side
    FF          G+G
As the light fades from the sky
  C majorC     FF          C majorC
