Topic: Zelie's song

was sitting here back in my room tonight here at work looking at pictures of the new grandbaby and playing around with the guitar and this just kind of came out. Tried to attach a photo of the little cutie not sure if its going to work https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid … amp;type=3

capo third fret
G                                                     C
seems like only yesterday we brought your mama home
G                                               C             
was it over twenty years oh how the time has flown
G                                      C
but time goes on and here you are as pretty as can be
G                                                           C
you wash away my troubles and give life some clarity

chorus
D                                            C                   G
may life always bring you joy and happiness
D                                             C                        G
and I will always love you until my dying breath

your innocence and beauty all rolled into one
the light you bring into my life it out shines the sun
and though I may be miles away your always in my heart
I always think about you when ever were apart

chorus

you put a song in my soul and make my spirits fly
I will always love you bigger than the sky
some day soon the day will come and I just fade away
I only hope that in your heart my memory will stay

chorus

out of tune out of key and out of touch

Re: Zelie's song

Mo', buddy. Those are some sure enough touching words. I am 100% sure your little Miss Zelie will love the tune her grampa wrote just for her and will treasure iot her whole life!

As I wrote Tig a few days ago, this is LEGACY stuff that comes straight from the heart.

Once again, our congratulations from

Bill and Dondra

Re: Zelie's song

Good one, Mojo ... and not even a hint about pickles anywhere. big_smile My 8-month-old grandson loves blue-grass pickin' at the moment, and anything by Cat Stevens. (The Wind, Moonshadow, etc.)
