[INTRO]
[D]
[VERSE 1]
[D]Do you remember, jody baxter
[D]When the whippoorwill sings
How you sto[G]le across the pasture
To the lit[D]tle hidden spri[A]ng?
Where you la[D]id down by the water
On a b[G]ed of spanish moss
And d[D]reamed
When the w[D]ind was on the prairie
And the fi[D]re was in the stove
With the wo[G]od you had to carry
From the cor[D]ner of the gro[A]ve
And your da[D]ddy let you disappear
With all yo[G]ur fishing gear
Into the co[D]ve
[CHORUS]
And it was go[Bm]od, go[D]od, goo[A]d
But now it's go[Bm]ne, gone, go[G]ne
And there's a lit[Bm]tle boy
Who's lo[A]st out in the wo[G]ods
Always looking for the fa[D]wn
[VERSE 2]
I rem[D]ember, jody baxter
When I h[D]id out in the corn
How the clo[G]uds were moving faster
With the com[D]ing of the stor[A]m
And I kn[D]ew that I had broken
Something [G]I could not repair
And I mou[D]rned
Because the fie[D]ld was green as eden
Then it withe[F#m]red into brown
In the mid[G]dle of my grieving
They ca[D]me and cut it d[A]own
And I was su[D]re that it was all my fault
[G]The day they mowed the garden
To the gr[D]ound
[CHORUS]
And what was [Bm]good, [D]good, g[A]ood
Was g[Bm]one, gone, g[G]one
And there's a lit[Bm]tle boy
Who's lo[A]st out in the wo[G]ods
Always looking for the fa[D]wn
[BRIDGE]
So come ba[G]ck to me
Please, come ba[D]ck to me
Is there an[Bm]y way that w[D]e can
Ch[A]ange the ending of this trag[G]edy?
Or does it ha[D]ve to[A] be this w[D]ay?
[F#m]Hey [G]
[D] [D] [F#m] [G]
[D] [A] [D]
[VERSE 3]
I c[D]an see you, jody baxter
Now you're br[F#m]oken by the years
As you l[G]ie down in the aster
And lis[D]ten for the deer
And I'm a milli[D]on miles away
But I still pr[G]ay the fawn can find me
He[D]re
[CHORUS]
'Cause it was[Bm] good,[D] good, [A]good
But now it's go[Bm]ne [G]
And there's a lit[Bm]tle boy
Who's lo[A]st out in the wo[G]ods
Always looking for the fa[D]wn
Yes I'm a little b[Bm]oy
Who's lost out i[D]n the wo[G]ods
Always looking for the fa[D]wn
