Willie Says Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

 FWillie says,C G

 Here's a Amstory that you F may not comprehend C G

 But the Am parking lot will F crack and bloom C again G

 There's a Am world beneath the F pavement, that will C never end G

 The Am seeds are lying F dormant, it will C never end G Am F

And Willie says

If you listen you can hear the sound of birds

Here their song above the chaos, hear their words

Listen to their love song that will never end

The seeds are lying dormant, it will never end

If you listen you may hear

Em And the old one Am sits with me F above the G city

Em While I watch the Am madness of the F world below G

Em Then she laughs and Am tells me that its F temporary G

Em Underneath the wild garden F waits to G grow

And Willie says

When you say you are afraid I understand

In a place where one can rarely smell the land

But the ocean breeze still blows here, that will never end

The seeds are lying dormant, it will never end

And Willie says

If you listen to this tree you'll hear its song

Its the music that my people pass along

Its a dream that keeps returning that will never end

The seeds are lying dormant, it will never end

If you listen you may hear

And Willie says

Here's a story that you may not comprehend

But the forest here will rise and bloom again

There's a world beneath the pavement, that will never end

The seeds are lying dormant, it will never end

Listen to their love song that will never end

Its a dream that keeps returning that will never end
