Listen To The Sound

	  		verse 1 

C 
You were born by the rolling ocean; 
Dm                G 
I was born in the mountains green. 
C 
Sing to the wind and the wind will tell you 
Dm                    G        C 
All of the things the wind has seen. 
C 
Listen to the tin can highway hummin'; 
Dm                        G 
Listen to the plow in the new green ground. 
C 
Hear the sound of a freight train comin'. 
Dm                  G                 C 
There could be a place you never have found. 


C 
Listen to the sound,; listen to the sound; 
                            F            G 
Listen to the tune that the wind brought down. 
C 
Listen to the old-time sound of the fiddle 
F              G                    C 
Telling of the place you never have found. 


verse 2 
C 
We were born by different highways; 
Dm                    G 
That's the difference in our ways. 
C 
You can hear a sound of far off places... 
Dm             G          C 
Echoes of a song in other days. 
C 
You were born by the rolling ocean 
Dm                G 
I was born in the mountains green. 
C  
Sing to the wind and the wind will tell you 
Dm              G                C 
All of the things you never have seen. 


C 
Listen to the sound,; listen to the sound; 
                            F            G 
Listen to the tune that the wind brought down. 

Listen to the old-time sound of the fiddle 
F              G                    C 
Telling of the place you never have found.
