More songs by Dolly Parton


This file is part of a collection that (moreso than the rest of the site) are not meant to be detailed or accurate transcriptions of the original recordings. They're just some simple chord charts that I made for my own use, some of them my own arrangements.

           C                          C7
    Oh sometimes I go walking through fields where we walked
          F                       C
    Long ago in the sweet used to be
            C                           C
    And the flowers still grow but they don't smell as sweet
            C            G               C
    As they did when you picked them for me

                 Am         C           Am           C
        And when I think of you and the love we once knew
              F                        C
        How I wish we could go back in time
              C                      C
        Do you ever think back on old memories like that
             C       G          C
        Or do I ever cross your mind

       F            F6            Fmaj7         F
Do you ever wake up lonely in the middle of the night
            C               C
Because you miss me, do you darling, oh and
G                              F                         C
Do your memories ever take you back into another place & time
       F           F6                Fmaj7           F
Oh and do you ever miss the feelings and the love we shared
              C               C
When you were with me, do you darling
       C           G          C
I just wonder do I cross your mind

           C                  C7
    Oh how often I wish that again I could kiss
               F                     C
    Your sweet lips like I did long ago
            C                      C
    And how often I long for those two loving arms
              C          G          C
    That once held me so gentle and close

                 Am         C       Am              C
        When old memories appear my eyes won't stay clear
               C                      C
        When I think of those happier times
               C                     C
        Do you ever recall these old memories at all
              C      G          C
        Or do I ever cross your mind
