G
Almost exactly a year ago
C G
I came here for the very first time
C G
Looking up at the Spanish window
Am D7
From a trail on the edge of the timberline
G
I've been off on a journey to find myself
C G
Maybe find my way back home
C G
Been many an hour all by myself
Am
In the darkest of nights
D D7 G C D
I was never ever alone
G
Back into the San Juan Mountains again
C G
On a ride with some good old boys
C G
Telling stories around a campfire
Am D7
The sound of laughter is the loudest noise
G
There's something in a night in the wilderness
C G
It's a magical thing to me
C G
Like the sky is just a little bit brighter
Am D D7 G C D G
And your life is everything that you'd like it to be
C G
There'll be snow on the passes tomorrow
C D G
You can feel it in the chill of the wind
Em G
Let the rain wash away all my sorrow
C D D7 G C D
Today is the day that my life starts all over again
G
I guess that it's just about over now
C G
Everything's about to change
C G
Everything's a brand new number, darlin'
Am D7
Everything's a brand new game
G
And it's funny I could even call you that
C G
After all the pain we've been through
C G
Ah, but time is the master of healing
Am D D7 G C D
Love is the master of everything that we do
C G
There'll be snow on the passes tomorrow
C D G
You can feel it in the chill of the wind
Em G
Let the rain wash away all my sorrow
C D D7 G C D G C D G
Today is the day that my life starts all over again
