"Vanishing Breed"
The River of Time Album

  G 	  	  	       C 	 
We're both the kind who can find peace of mind
  G 	  	  	     C 	 
In the light of an old fireplace
  G 	  	  	 C 	  	 D
Wrapped in a blanket talking the night away
  G 	  	  	     C
Watching snow falling, the lone wolf is calling
     G 	  	  	 C
Out into the endless space
  G                       C       D         G
Cause there aren't many left like us these days
  Em            G           C
Down where the city lights burn
  Em          G       D
I know we'll never return


CHORUS:
  G                               C                      G
Listen to the wind blow over the hills, the whispering pines
  G                                C                 D
Everything is free and all that we see is yours and mine
  G                                C                     G
Just you and me and this old log house is all that we need
  G                   C      D         G
That's why they call us the vanishing breed



  G                         C
Its good just knowing that our love is growing
  G                      C
And we're gonna find a place
  G            C                 D
In a life we built with our own hands
  G                         C
Like wild horses runnin out under the sun
  G                    C
We're gonna find some space
  G                      C        D         G
Cause there aren't many left like us these days
  Em            G              C
God's greatest gift to you and me
  Em            G              D
Is knowing how it feels to be free
