James Otto Lyrics




Song of the Violin - James Otto

Intro:  D  A  G  D  (twice)

D
The last fifty years have seen laughter and tears
          A           G       D
And your hair slowly fade to gray
                            
Your children are grown now and it's hard to believe how
    A                G           D
The years have just all slipped away

CHORUS:
    Bm                   
But in time, you've gained a wisdom
      A                  D
That seems to elude the young
         Bm
And each line that now marks your face
           A                          D
Tells the stories of all that you've done
   G     A       G       A     D   Bm
So fear not the passing of the days
          A                      G         A            D
Like the song of the violin you only grow sweeter with age

D  A  G   D

As time's pages turn you lived and you learned
What truly mattered most
Is family and friends and in the end
Finding peace in the path that you chose

CHORUS

solo D  A  G  D  (twice)

CHORUS
         A                      G          A            D
Like the song of the violin you only grow sweeter with age

D  A  G  D (twice)

     D
The last fifty years have seen laughter and tears
         A            G       D
And your hair slowly fade to gray
