Intro: D G D A7 D
D G D
Sometimes at night when I'm all alone
A7
The sounds of the day fade away
D G D
Alone in my room with my memories
G D A7 D
Winds of yesterday blow on me
G D
I hear country music on the radio
A7
The way that it was a long time ago
D G D
And the sound of Mama singin' comes driftin' through the trees
G D A7 D
When the winds of yesterday blow on me
D G D
I see a moon so bright over cotton fields of white
A7
The fragrance of magnolias ride the breeze
D G D
And that little two room school where I learned the Golden Rule
G D A7 D
And the winds of yesterday blow on me
G D
I see children at the old swimmin' hole
A7
And fishin' on the river with an old cane pole
D G D
Each memory is so dear each face is so clear
G D A7 D
When the winds of yesterday blow on me
G D
I can hear the choir sing how their voices ring
A7
I remember the words to each song
D G D
“Oh and that old preacher man once more sets my heart at ease “
G D A7 D
When the winds of yesterday blow on me
G D A7 D
When the winds of yesterday blow on me
