Gentle On My Mind Written by John Hartford

Key of C Intro | C | Cmaj7 | C6 | Cmaj7 |

Verse 1 | C | Cmaj7 | C6 | Cmaj7 | Dm | Dm7 | Dm6 | Dm7 It’s knowing that your door is always open and your path is free to walk,

| Dm | Dm+7 | Dm7 | G7 | C | Cmaj7 | C6 | Cmaj7

That makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag rolled up and stashed behind your couch. | C | Cmaj7 | C6 | Cmaj7

And it’s knowing I’m not shackled by for- gotten words and bonds | C6 | C | Dm | Dm7 | Dm6 | Dm7

and the ink stains that have dried upon some line.

| Dm | Dm7 | Dm6 | Dm7 | G7sus4 | G7 | C That keeps you in the backroads, by the rivers of my memory, that keeps you ever, gentle on my mind.

| Cmaj7 | C6 | Cmaj7

Verse 2 | C | Cmaj7 | C6 | Cmaj7 | Dm | Dm7 | Dm6 | Dm7

It’s not clinging to the rocks and ivy planted on the columns now that binds me, | Dm | Dm+7 | Dm7 | G7 | C | Cmaj7 | C6 | Cmaj7

Or something that somebody said, because they thought we fit together, walkin’. | C | Cmaj7 | C6 | Cmaj7

It’s just knowing that the world will not be cursin’ or for- givin’ | C6 | C | Dm | Dm7 | Dm6 | Dm7

When I walk along some railroad track and find

| Dm | Dm7 | Dm6 | Dm7 | G7sus4 | G7 | C That you’re moving on the backroads, by the rivers of my memory, for hours, you’re just gentle on my mind.


Verse 3 | C | Cmaj7 | C6 | Cmaj7 | Dm | Dm7|Dm6|Dm7

Though the wheat fields, & the clothes lines, & the junkyards, & the highways come be- tween us. | Dm | Dm+7 | Dm7 | G7 | C | Cmaj7 | C6 | Cmaj7

Some other woman crying to her mother, cause she turned and I was gone. | C | Cmaj7 | C6 | Cmaj7

I still might run in silence, tears of joy might stain my face

| C6 | C | Dm | Dm7 | Dm6 | Dm7 and summer sun might burn me till I’m blind

| Dm | Dm7 | Dm6 | Dm7 | G7sus4 | G7 | C But not to where I cannot see you walkin’ on the backroads, by the rivers flowing gentle on my mind.


Verse 4 | C | Cmaj7 | C6 | Cmaj7 | Dm | Dm7 | Dm6 | Dm7

I dip my cup of soup back from the gurglin’ cracklin’ caldron in some train yard, | Dm | Dm+7 | Dm7 | G7 | C | Cmaj7 | C6 | Cmaj7

My beard a roughening coalpile and a dirty hat pulled low across my face, | C | Cmaj7 | C6 | Cmaj7 | Dm | Dm7 | Dm6 | Dm7

through cupped hands ‘round a tin can, I pre- tend I hold you to my breast and find.

| Dm | Dm7 | Dm6 | Dm7 | G7sus4 | G7 | C That you’re movin from the backroads, by the rivers of my memory, ever smilin’ ever gentle on my mind.


C Cmaj7 C6 Dm Dm6 Dm7 Dm+7 G7 G7sus4

Hotel California – The Eagles (1977)

Intro : Em / B7 / D / A / C / G / Am / B7 / =================================================================================================================================================================== =====================================

Em / B7 / D / A /

On a dark desert highway... cool wind in my hair, warm smell of colitas .. rising up through the air. C / G / Am /

Up ahead in the distance… I saw a shimmering light, My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim, B7 / I had to stop for the night. =================================================================================================================================================================== =====================================

Em / B7 /

There she stood in the doorway… I heard the mission bell D / A / And I was thinking to myself .. this could be heaven or this could be hell. C / G /

Then she lit up a candle… and she showed me the way. Am / B7 /

There were voices down the corridor … I thought I heard them say .... ========================================================================================================================================================================================================

C / G / B7 / Em / Welcome to the Hotel California .. such a lovely place (such a lovely place), such a lovely face C / G / Am / B7 / There's plenty of room at the Hotel California, anytime of year (anytime of year), you can find it here. =================================================================================================================================================================== =====================================

Em / B7 /

Her mind is Tiffany-twisted … she got the Mercedes bends, D / A /

She got a lot of pretty pretty boys …that she calls friends, C / G /

How they dance in the courtyard … sweet summer sweat, Am / B7 /

Some dance to remember … some dance to forget. ========================================================================================================================================================================================================

Em / B7 /

So I called up the captain… please bring me my wine (he said ...) D / A / C / G /

“We haven't had that spirit here since… 1969”, and still those voices are calling ..from far away, Am / B7 / Wake you up in the middle of the night… just to hear them say ... ========================================================================================================================================================================================================

C / G / B7 / Em / Welcome to the Hotel California, Such a lovely place, (such a lovely place), such a lovely face C / G / Am / B7 / Living it up at the Hotel California, What a nice surprise (what a nice surprise)…bring your alibis... =================================================================================================================================================================== =====================================

Em / B7 /

Mirrors on the ceiling … pink champagne on ice (and she said ...) D / A / “We are all just prisoners here … of our own device”, C / G /

And in the master's chambers… they gathered for the feast, Am / B7 /

They stab it with their steely knives … but they just can't kill the beast. ============================================================================================================================================================ ============================================

Em / B7 / D /

Last thing I remember… I was running for the door, I had to find the passage back .. A / C / G /

to the place I was before, "Relax", said the night man, “We are programmed to receive .... Am / B7 /

You can check out anytime you like, but…..you can never leave”. ========================================================================================================================================================================================================

My [Dm] friend I'll say it [Dm7] clear

I'll state my [G7sus4] case [G7] of which I'm [Csus4] cer[C]tain

I've [C] lived [Cmaj7] a life that's [C9] full [C7]

I travelled [F] each and every [Fm] highway

And [C] more much more than [G7sus4] this [G7] I did it [Dm] my [C] way

Re[C]grets I've had a [Cmaj7] few

But then a[C9]gain too few to [A7sus4] men[A7]tion

I [Dm] did what I had to [Dm7] do

And saw it [G7sus4] through [G7] without ex[Csus4]emp[C]tion

I [C] planned [Cmaj7] each charted [C9] course [Bbdim]

Each careful [F] step along the [Fm] byway

And [C] more much more than [G7sus4] this [G7] I did it [Dm] my [C] way

[C] Yes [Csus4] there were [C] times [Cmaj7] I'm sure you [C9] knew

When [C7] I bit [F] off more than I could chew

But through it [Dm] all when there was [G7] doubt

I ate it [Em7] up and spit it [Am] out

I faced it [Dm] all and I stood [G7] tall and did it [Dm] my [C] way

I've [C] loved I've laughed and [Cmaj7] cried

I've had my [C9] fill my share of [A7sus4] lo[A7]sing

And [Dm] now as tears sub[Dm7]side

I find it [G7sus4] all [G7] so a[Csus4]mu[C]sing

To [C] think [Cmaj7] I did all [C9] that [Bbdim]

And may I [F] say not in a [Fm] shy way

Oh [C] no oh no not [G7sus4] me [G7] I did it [Dm] my [C] way

[C] For what [Csus4] is a [C] man [Cmaj7] what has he [C9] got [Bbdim]

If not him[Fmaj7]self then he has naught

To say the [Dm] things he truly [G7] feels

And not the [Em7] words of one who [Am] kneels

The record [Dm] shows I took the [G7] blows and did it [Dm] my [C] way

SMOKE GETS IN YOUR EYES 4/4 1234 (slowly)

They asked me how I knew my true love was true

I of course re-plied "something here in-side cannot be de-nied"

They said "someday you'll find all who love are blind"

When your heart's on fire, you must rea-lize smoke gets in your eyes

So I chaffed them and I gaily laughed to think they could doubt my love

Yet today my love has flown away, I am with-out my love

Now laughing friends de-ride tears I cannot hide

So I smile and say "when a lovely flame dies, smoke gets in your eyes"

(Smoke gets in your eyes, smoke gets in your eyes.) Smoke gets in your eyes!
