[Verse 1]
         D
Do you remember, jody baxter
         D
When the whippoorwill sings
           G
How you stole across the pasture
          D              A
To the little hidden spring?
            D
Where you laid down by the water
      G
On a bed of spanish moss
     D
And dreamed

          D
When the wind was on the prairie
          D
And the fire was in the stove
           G
With the wood you had to carry
            D             A
From the corner of the grove
           D
And your daddy let you disappear
           G
With all your fishing gear
           D
Into the cove


[Chorus]
             Bm    D      A
And it was good, good, good
               Bm          G
But now it's gone, gone, gone
                 Bm
And there's a little boy
        A               G
Who's lost out in the woods
                         D
Always looking for the fawn


[Verse 2]
     D
I remember, jody baxter
        D
When I hid out in the corn
           G
How the clouds were moving faster
            D              A
With the coming of the storm
        D
And I knew that I had broken
          G
Something I could not repair
         D
And I mourned

               D
Because the field was green as eden
             F#m
Then it withered into brown
          G
In the middle of my grieving
       D              A
They came and cut it down
            D
And I was sure that it was all my fault
G
The day they mowed the garden
         D
To the ground


[Chorus]
             Bm    D      A
And what was good, good, good
     Bm          G
Was gone, gone, gone
                 Bm
And there's a little boy
        A               G
Who's lost out in the woods
                         D
Always looking for the fawn


[Bridge]
          G
So come back to me
               D
Please, come back to me
           Bm          D
Is there any way that we can
  A                           G
Change the ending of this tragedy?
             D    A         D
Or does it have to be this way?
F#m  G
Hey

D D F#m G

[Verse 3]
   D
I can see you, jody baxter
             F#m
Now you're broken by the years
        G
As you lie down in the aster
       D
And listen for the deer
               D
And I'm a million miles away
              G
But I still pray the fawn can find me
  D
Here


[Chorus]
             Bm    D      A
'Cause it was good, good, good
               Bm  G
But now it's gone
                 Bm
And there's a little boy
        A               G
Who's lost out in the woods
                         D
Always looking for the fawn
                  Bm
Yes I'm a little boy
                D       G
Who's lost out in the woods
                         D
Always looking for the fawn
