lirik lagu tony joe white - lake placid blues
a] at the time i was [g] too young for the [a] men
but [a] it’s become much [g] clearer through the [a]
years
[a] we gathered [g] round the boy in his [d] army
clothes
said good[c]bye and his [g] mother shed her [a] tears
[a] every day she [g] watched for the [a] postman
but the [a] long awaited [g] letter was over[a]due
[a] it’s not the [g] silence that [d]makes you crazy
it’s the [c] sound of a [g] heart breaking in [a] two
[c] then it [g] came across the [a] ocean
it was [c] hard to under[g]stand the awful [a] news
[c] i don’t know [g] why i still re[a]member
i [c] guess it’s just the [g] lake placid [a] blues [a]
[g]
[a] i turned 18 and [g] left that part of the [a]
country
[a] went down on the [g] padre island [a] coast
[a] of all the [g] hard times i [d] still remember
the repo[c]ssession of the [g] guitar hurt the [a] most
i [a] often stood in [g] line outside the [a]mission
and i [a] huddled there be[g]side them in the [a] rain
a [a] priest came [g] to the door with [d] empty eyes
i could [c] see he no [g] longer felt their [a] pain
[c] some were [g] searchin’ for for[a]giveness
and [c] others [g] only wanted [a] food
i [c] needed [g] more than i could [a] ask for
there is no [c] comfort with the [g] lake placid
[a]blues
[a] [g] [a] [a] [g] [a] [a] [g] [d] [c] [g] [a]
[a] it’s hard to find good [g] friends in a [a]
lifetime
[a] you can usually [g] count ’em on one [a] hand
i [a] shivered [g] by the fire and the [d] dawn was
breakin’
and i [c] scattered his [g] ashes on the [a] sand
and the [g] silver cranes came [d] over in [a]
formation
[g] in a sacred [d] manner they [a] flew
[g] and i will [d] always re[a]member
the [c] sky, [g] the lake placid [a]blues
[a] [g] [a] [a] [g] [a] [a] [g] [a]
[c] [g] lake placid [a] blues [c] [g] [a] [c] [g] [a]
[c][g][a]
[c] [g] lake placid [a] blues
