Val's Cabin
When I was a kid and the summers were free????? D We'd pile in a car with no A.C. And point it east into the heat Across the Central Valley????? A We'd drive our mama near insane????? D 'Til she'd pull off of that big four lane??? A And we started up the winding road E??????? A To Val's cabin
About half-way to the mountain top We'd pull off the road and come to a stop By a rustic cabin with the shutters locked Sure, it was cooler, but still damn hot
But the pine and scotch-broom were in the air The river was just a few miles from there Just a ways down the winding road? Past Val's cabin
??????? D And the river runs through all my memories A???????????????????????? F#m Twisting and plunging be-tween the trees Sliding past great granite boulders smooth and warm as giants' shoulders??????????? D Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Now they've chained her and they've changed her?????? A?????????????? F#m So the fish can't even claim her??? A And I can't find the winding road?? E???? A To Val's cabin
On a long and dusty old dirt track We'd walk to the river and then trudge back Stopping to talk to every horse, Every friendly dog, and every cat
In the water ditch along the road We'd hide from the sun and dangle our toes Then we'd start up the winding road To Val's cabin
Now twenty years later I'm climbing that hill Roaring up the highway past Soulsbyville It's an oven outside, but it's cool in here In this air-conditioned automobile
It's four-lane concrete all the way They've straightened the curves and smoothed the grades They've covered up the winding road To Val's cabin
