Memories Of Old Hickory

D D A I know that you are near me, maybe now more so than ever I could find you D I know you're 22 feet tall and you walk around with angels beside you A And if you passed me on the street you would be there just like the breeze and then I'll miss ya D But i know coming soon I'll see you dancing on the moon my sweet Miranda D A We could fly away to Jupiter and spend a couple years out in the darkness D Or we could maybe find the ocean where the sands of desperation never breed A I would stare into your Russian eyes so easily you captivate my motion D For the aching in my heart is only constant when my mind is in a dream D Cause I can't have you A No, I can't have you G You know I want you D But I cannot have you D A Summer comes around again and I can see you dancing in the tall grass D I remember in old hickory when Madeleine and Shakey used to chase us A You would take the high road over Casper and I'd see you in the morning, yes I would D Another memory I've tried to shake away but sure enough it's back to haunt me, why... D Cause I can't have you A No, I can't have you G You know I want you D But I cannot have you D A I wake up in the clouds again so I can see Miranda off to college D She says to meet me in the garden, I'll be there to beg your pardon finally A Don't you ever let me go you know I love you when you sing to me so quiet D If it were up to me I'd never leave old hickory, but it's not up to me A D If it were up to me I'd never leave old hickory, but it's just not up to me
