Intro: [D] [Bm] [A] [D]
My old man [F#m]had a [Bm]rounder's soul[A]
He'd hear an old freight train
[D]Then he'd have to go
Said he'd been blessed [F#m]with a [Bm]gypsy bone[A]
That's the reason they guessed
[D]He'd been cursed to roam
Came into town [F#m]back [Bm]before the war[A]
Didn't even know what it was
[D]He was looking for
Carried a tattered b[F#m]ag for [Bm]his violin[A]
It was full of lots of songs
Of [D]places that he'd been
He talked real eeaa[F#m]ssy, [Bm]had a smiling way [A]
To pass along to you
[D]When his fiddle played
Making people [F#m]drop their [Bm]cares and woes [A]
To hum out loud those tunes
[D]That his fiddle howled
Till the people th[F#m]ere b[Bm]egan to join that sound [A]
And everyone in town was laughing
[D]Singing, dancing round
Like the fiddler's [F#m]tune
Was [Bm]all they heard that night [A]
As if some dream said
&[D]quot;All the world is right"
His fiddler's e[F#m]ye caught one [Bm]beauty there [A]
She had that rollin', flowin'
[D]Golden kind of hair
He played for her [F#m]as if sh[Bm]e danced alone [A]
Played his favorite songs
[D]Ones he called his own
He played until sh[F#m]e was the [Bm]last to go [A]
Stopped and packed his case
[D]And said he'd take her home

[F#m] [Bm]
[A] [D]

All the nights that pa[F#m]ssed a c[Bm]hild was born [A]
All the years that passed
That [D]love would keep them warm
All their lives they'd sh[F#m]are a dr[Bm]eam come true [A]
All because she danced
[D]While his fiddle tuned
My old man [F#m]had a [Bm]rounder's soul [A]
He'd hear an old freight train
Th[D]en he'd have to go
All that I reca[F#m]ll said [Bm]when I was so young [A]
There's no one else could really
[D]Sing those songs he sung
