Intro: : D : GA :
GDAD
January back in '55 we rode a Greyhound bus through the Georgia midnight
GDA
Grandpa was sleeping and the winter sky was clear
GDAD
We hit a bump and his head jerked back a little and he mumbled something
GDA
He woke up smiling, but his eyes were bright with tears
DGD
Said, "I dreamed I was back on the farm...
GADA
20 years have passed, boy, but the memory still warms me...
GADGA
Wildflowers in a Mason Jar..."
GDAD
He told me those old stories about that one-room cabin in Kentucky
GDA
The smell of the rain and the warm earth in his hands
GDAD
He slowly turned and stared outside; his face was mirrored in the window
GDA
And his reflection flew across the moonlit land
DGD
And he dreamed he was back on the farm
GADA
Tilts his head and listens to the early sound of morning
GADGA
Wildflowers in a Mason Jar
GDAD
An old man and an eight-year-old boy rolling down that midnight highway
GDA
Kentucky memories from a winter Georgia night
GDAD
I started drifting off and Grandpa tucked his coat around me
GDA
I think I tried to smile as I slowly closed my eyes
DGD
And I dreamed I was with him on the farm
GADA
"Grandpa, I can hear the evening wind out in the corn...
GADGA
Wildflowers in a Mason Jar...
GADGA
Wildflowers in a Mason Jar...
GADGA
Wildflowers in a Mason Jar..."
GAD
And the bus rolled through the night
