Song of the Violin
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
