The Allman Brothers Band
Shapes Of Things
(Keith Relf - Jim McCarty - Paul Samwell-Smith)
Verse 1:
Shapes
Of things before my eyes
Just teach me to despise
Will time make man more wise
Verse 2:
Here
Within my lonely frame
My eyes just hurt my brain
But will they seem the same
Chorus:
Come tomorrow
Will I be older
Come tomorrow
May be a soldier
Come tomorrow
Will I be bolder
Than today?
Verse 3:
Now
The trees are almost green
But will they still be seen
Where time and tide have been
Verse 4:
Fallen
Into your passing hands
Please don't destroy these lands
Don't make them desert sands
[repeat Chorus]
Guitar solo:
Verse 5:
Soon
I hope that I will find
Loves deep within my mind
That won't disgrace my kind
