Song of the Violin--James Otto written by James Otto This is a beautiful song from one of the Musik Mafia's oft-overlooked members. Intro: D A G D (twice) D The last fifty years have seen laughter and tears A G D And your hair slowly fade to gray Your children are grown now and it's hard to believe how A G D The years have just all slipped away CHORUS: Bm But in time, you've gained a wisdom A D That seems to elude the young Bm And each line that now marks your face A D Tells the stories of all that you've done G A G A D Bm So fear not the passing of the days A G A D Like the song of the violin you only grow sweeter with age DAGD As time's pages turn you lived and you learned What truly mattered most Is family and friends and in the end Finding peace in the path that you chose CHORUS solo D A G D (twice) CHORUS A G A D Like the song of the violin you only grow sweeter with age D A G D (twice) D The last fifty years have seen laughter and tears A G D And your hair slowly fade to gray
