Words and Music By JOHN HARTFORD

Its knowing that your door is always open, 

6   -6   6    5  -4   4  -4 
And your path is free to walk. 

-5   -5    -5 -5   -4 -5    -5 -5   -4  -5 
That makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag 

-5     -5  6   5       -4 4   -4   5 
rolled up, And stashed behind your couch. 

5   6   6   6   6  6   6    5   6  5  6  6 
And its knowing Im not shackled by forgotten 

6     6   6 5    6   6   6   6      6    -6 
words and bonds, And the ink stains that have 

6     5  -4 4    -4 
dried up on some line. 

-5   -5    -5  -4 -5  -5  -5    -5 -4  -5 -5  -5 
That keeps you in the backroads by the rivers of 

-5 -5  -5 
my memory, 

-5   -5    -5  -5 6 5   4  -5 4  4 
That keeps you ever Gentle On My Mind.
