The Gift - Tony Joe White

I was sitting in a grave yard and I

Didn’t know

And I walk in the dark and a bottle of wine

Thinking there the moon hang in the sky

Cut your rope

Have a little tune going through my ear

Then I started to cry

.

in heaven on my heart

Too much on my mind

I was staring out of the shadows

When I don’t.

a few

Heard the whisper in the.

All around you

Then it get towels in my hand everybody’s thinking so

Can slip the release and all the pieces

But they knew it was time to go

They left me there

The cold gray dawn

I feel like a man walking in the sleep

.

to my car

But now I have a shut gun rider

She said: I ain’t gonna fall

I hope you remember what you’ve seen here

Boy, as long as you live

I’m gonna have to leave you now

.

that’s the gift
