Subject: CRD: Mother and Child Reunion by Paul Simon
This is one of the first songs I ever
learned, it is quite beautiful. This is
a post of how I remember figuring it out
about seven years ago. I am not sure if all
the lyrics are correct. It is arranged
for a nylon string acoustic guitar playing
mostly open cords.
Mother and Child Reunion
By: Paul Simon
CRD by: Jonah Colman
No I would not give you false hope
on this strange and mournful day
but the mother and child reunion
is only a moment away....
o.o.oh little darling of mine
I can t for the life of me
remember a sadder day
I know they say let it be
but it just don t work out that way
And the course of a lifetime runs
over and over again
But I would not give you false hope, No!
on this strange and mournful day
but the mother and child reunion
is only a motion away
o.o.oh little darling of mine
I just can t believe its so
and though it seems strange to say
I ve never been laid so low
in such a mysterious way
And the course of a lifetime runs
over and over again
But I would not give you false hope, No!
on this strange and mournful day
but the mother and child reunion
is only a motion away..away..away away
PEACE: JJC
