Silverado
© 2008 words and music by Brian S. Cram

I had a dream. Took my Lady, we went
Drivin' up a canyon lookin' for a place where we could
Shed our shackles, fall in love and settle down
Grow lover’s wings on my heart and let it
Carry me to Silverado

Up in the canyon it's a different kind of life. They've got no
Street lights, no Taco Bell, no Chevron or Shell, but they've got
Canyon walls, nature’s concert hall, echoing her sounds to me
Oh, Baby, walk me to the altar and
Marry me to Silverado

(solos)

Singin' my songs to the heart of the hillside
Playin' my tunes in the afternoon, sittin' 'round waitin'
For this crazy world to slow down and catch up with me
And when my time comes to go, won't you please
Bury me in Silverado

And when my father comes to get me, spread my
Ashes there in Silverado
