Trail in Life 

 
capo 1 
                D                  A 
Was a may full moon we parked the car  
    G                                 D        
And i sang you a song i wrote on my guitar 
           D                        A 
oh i have kissed many times since then 
       G                                 D 
but that first one is special, one you dont forget 
   Em                                          A 
if i had asked you then youd probably took my ring 
     Em                         A               D 
but time and distance have a way of changing things 

                 A                    D 
and sometimes i wonder what it would happen like 
            A                D 
if we had wandered the same path in life 
                 A                D     A        G 
tonight if your out there looking up at the same moon 
         D                      A                     D     A   G 
girl i hope that your trail in life has been good to you 

college days, frat house nights 
you were more than just a bunch of rowdy friends of mine 
you made leaving home not as hard to bear 
yeah we swore we would stick together til we were in rocking chairs 

we all kinda scattered getting our lives in gear 
phone calls went from weeks to months to i aint heard in years 

and sometimes I wonder what it would happen like 
if we had wandered the same path in life 
we'd still smoke cigars when the wild cats beat O U 
and friends i hope that your trail in life has been good to you 

when i was born, they said you cried 
when you signed those papers and kissed me goodbye 
too young to know how to raise me up, 
so you let me go and start this world in a house of love. 
i was 12 years old when daddy sat me down 
and told me of a brave girl that i should know about 

and sometimes I wonder what it would happen like 
if we had wandered the same path in life 
i think id make you proud of the boy you never knew 
and god i hope that your trail in life has been good to you 
                D                      A                          D 
and someday i know this old trail in life will lead wind back to you
