verse 1 
Em 
Long lonely sound 
       C               G 
Like a distant wolf or hound 
         A               G               C 
With the slowness of the wind inside the canyon 
  Em 
I gazed upon the night 
        C             G 
Without loneliness or fright 
       A7             G           C 
It was fine to have a woman by my side 
 
             C#dim7 F#7        Bm7     F 
And that was ten_____  years behind me 
G/B   C           Bm             G/A Am G/B C 
Oh, behind me the child became a man 
C#dim7 F#7        Bm7     F 
Ten_____  years behind me 
    G/B  C           Am     D          Em   C  Bm  Em  C  D 
And it reminds me of what I don't have now 
 
verse 2 
Em 
Heat of the day 
           C                G 
When those flies got in our way 
         A              G               C 
With the burning of the leaves upon the hillside 
Em 
But I was so young 
         C                G 
Short of breath, clean of lung 
          A7             G                 C 
There's a first time for everything that's done 
 
             C#dim7 F#7        Bm7     F 
And that was ten_____  years behind me 
G/B   C           Bm             G/A Am G/B C 
Oh, behind me the child became a man 
C#dim7 F#7        Bm7     F 
Ten_____  years behind me 
    G/B  C           Am     D          Em   C  Bm  Em  C  D 
And it reminds me of what I don't have now 
 
verse 3 
Em 
So far away 
       C                   G 
As the earth's concerned today 
       A                  G              C       G  D 
So the winter spreads the morning on the canyon 
  Em 
I gazed upon the sight 
        C             G 
Without loneliness or fright 
       A7             G           C 
It was fine to have a woman by my side 
       A7             G           C 
It was fine to have a woman by my side
