Johnny Cash

Written by Charlie Williams

Key of G · Chords: I IV V

Verse 1

G                         C
The years creep slowly by Lorena
D7                   G
Snow is on the grass again
                       C
The sun is sinking low Lorena
D7                              G
Frost is where the flowers have been

Verse 2

                        C
The music's sad and low Lorena
D7                         G
Happy sounds have left the day
                           C
The banjo's softly playing Lorena
D7                               G
Where once they rang so loud and gay

Verse 3

                       C
I hardly feel the cold Lorena
D7                             G
I pray this darkness soon will pass
                             C
We'll sing those songs again Lorena
D7                      G
You'll be in my arms at last
