[INTRO]
G


[VERSE 1]
G GM7/F# Em
It's knowing that your door is always open
G/D Am
And your path is free to walk
Am Ammaj7 Am7
That makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag
D G
Rolled up and stashed behind your couch
G GM7/F#
And it's knowing I'm not shackled
Em G/D
By forgotten words and bonds
G G Am
And the ink stains that are dried upon some line
Am Ammaj7
That keeps you on the back roads
Am7 D
By the rivers of my memory
Am D G
That keeps you ever gentle on my mind


[VERSE 2]
G GM7/F#
It's not clinging to the rocks and ivy
Em G/D Am
Planted on their columns now that bind me
Am Ammaj7
Or something that somebody said
Am7 D G
Because they thought we fit together walking
G GM7/F# Em
It's just knowing that the world will not be cursing
G/D G Am
Or forgiving when I walk along some railroad track and find
Am Ammaj7
That you're moving on the back roads
Am7 D
By the rivers of my memory
Am D G
And for hours you're just gentle on my mind


[VERSE 3]
G GM7/F#
Though the wheat fields and the clothes lines
Em G/D Am
And the junkyards and the highways come between us
Am Ammaj7 Am7
And some other woman's cryin' to her mother
D G
'Cause she turned and I was gone
G GM7/F# Em G/D
I still might run in silence tears of joy might stain my face
G Am
And the summer sun might burn me 'til I'm blind
Am Ammaj7 Am7 D
Oh but not to where I cannot see you walkin' on the back roads
Am D G
By the rivers flowing gentle on my mind


[VERSE 4]
G GM7/F# Em
I dip my cup of soup back from a gurglin'
G/D Am
Cracklin' cauldron in some train yard
Am Ammaj7 Am7
My beard* a rustlin' cold towel
D G
A dirty hat pulled low across my face (across my face)
G GM7/F#
Through cupped hands 'round the tin can
Em G/D Am
I pretend to hold you to my breast and find
Am Ammaj7
That you're waiting from the back roads
Am7 D
By the rivers of my memories
Am D G
Ever smilin' ever gentle on my mind


[OUTRO]

Gentle on my mind
Em/G Emmaj7/G G
You are gentle on my mind
Em/G Emmaj7/G G G
Ooh yeah
