While looking on the internet, I found that there was a major shortage
of Bruce Hornsby stuff. This might have been because I was looking on
guitar tab pages, while Bruce Hornsby and the range is a piano band. I
originally figured this out on piano, but it doesn't sound too bad on
guitar. Enjoy. ~e~
The song came and went
Like the times that we spent
Hiding out from the rain under the carnival tent
I laughed and she smiled
It would last for awhile
You don't know what you got till you lose it all again
Listen to the mandolin rain
Listen to the music on the lake
Listen to my heart break every time she runs away
Listen to the banjo wind
A sad song drifting low
Listen to the tears roll down my face as she turns to go
A cool evening dance
Listening to the bluegrass band takes the chill
From the air till they play the last song
I'll do my time
Keeping you off my mind
But there's moments that I find, I'm not feeling too strong
Running on down by the lakeshore
She did love the sound of a summer storm
Playin on the lake like a mandolin
Now it's washing her away once again
The boat's steaming in
I watch the sidewheel spin and
I think about her when I hear the whistle blow
I can't change my mind
I knew all the time that she'd go
But that's a choice I made long ago
