Gentle On My Mind
recorded by Glen Campbell
written by John Hartford

It's [G] knowing that your door [G7] is always open
and yo-[G]ur path is free [Am] to walk,
that makes me [Am] tend to leave my sleeping bag
rolled up [D7] and stashed be-[G]hind your couch.
And it's [G] knowing I'm not shackled
by for-[G7]gotten words and bonds
and the [G] ink stains that have dried [Am] if on some line,
that keeps you in [Am7] the backroads
by the rivers of my mem'ry
that [Am] keeps you[D7] ever gentle[G] on my mind.

It's not clinging to the rocks and ivy
planted on the columns now that binds me,
or something that somebody said
because they thought we fit together walking.
It's just knowing that the world will not be cursing
or forgiving when I walk along some railroad track
and find that you are moving on the backroads
by the rivers of my mem'ry
and for hours you're just gentle on my mind.
