E A B
Winding down the dusty trail
E A B
From Cathedral Butte
E A B
Walking towards the canyon floor
A B E
Playing Anasasi flutes
E A B
Eagles flying overhead
E A B
Beneath the desert sky
E A B
Makes me think of how they lived
A B
Many years gone by
E A B
I wander here from time to time
E A B
To give my head some space
E A B
Leave the noise and confusion
A B E
Vanish without a trace
E A B
Salt Creek runs through the grass
E A B
As you hum that canyon tune
E A B
Brush against the desert sage
A B
Just like some sweet perfume

E A B
Yes this is the timeless place
E A B
That's seen them come and go
E A B
They packed it up way back when
A B E
And drifted on down the road
E A B
The earth, the sun, the moon and the stars
E A B
Meant so much back then
E A B
But the years go by and though you try
A B E
You can't bring them back again
