Вступление
Point Your Wagon Tongue - Red Steagall
[Verse 1]
G C G
I hired on with col. Slaughter, driving steers to Abilene
D
Green and wet behind the ears, a kid of seventeen
G C G
Though I was raised in Texas, I was not a seasoned hand
D G
So I got the job of hoodilum, the coosies right hand man.
[Verse 2]
G C G
On the llano estecato, all you see are endless plains
D
You dread the sound of thunder, there's no shelter from the rain
G C G
Now the coosie did a strange thing, when the evening meal was done,
D G
He'd wait until the stars come out, then move the wagon tongue.
[Chorus]
G C G
He said there ain't no landmarks on these wide and rollin' plains
D
There ain't no trees or mountains, so each day it looks the same
G C
But you'll never lose direction and you'll know just where you are
G D G
If you'll always point the wagon tongue, toward that ol' north star.
[Verse 3]
G C G
Out along the Cimarron, one cold and stormy night
D
I watched the cattle stampede, through the lightnings' eerie light.
G C G
Took several days to round em up, get em settled down
D G
And we followed in the wagon, through the soft and muddy ground.
[Verse 4]
G C G
As we pushed the herd across the plains, we had no way to know
D
That we had drifted way off course, towards New Mexico
G C G
But that night the stars came out, his theory stood the test;
D G
Abilene's up north of us, but we were headed west.
[Chorus]
G C G
He said there ain't no landmarks on these wide and rollin' plains
D
There ain't no trees or mountains, so each day it looks the same
G C
But you'll never lose direction and you'll know just where you are
G D G
If you'll always point the wagon tongue, toward that ol' north star.
[Verse 5]
G C G
My life has been a full one, my hair is turnin gray
D
And I've seen a lot of sunshine, but I've seen some cloudy days.
G C G
For a while I wondered aimlessly and I still wear the scars
D G
Of when I didn't point my wagon tongue, toward that ol' north star.
[Final Chorus and Outro]
G C G
'Cause life is like a grassy sea, the trail ain't always plain,
D
One may lead to pleasure and another lead to pain,
G C
But you'll never lose direction and you'll know just where you are
G D G
If you'll always point your wagon tongue, toward that ol' north star
C
Yes you'll never lose direction and you'll know just where you are
G D G
If you'll always point your wagon tongue, toward that ol' north star.
