JOHN DENVER'S DEAD.

The smell of wood-smoke in the morning
Drifting thru the valley
And the sun begins its journey thru the sky
It's a Rocky Mountain glory

But some news this morning rocked my world
And left me really sad
A friend that I had never met
Was never coming back

John Denver's dead
I heard it on the radio
John Denver's dead
And now he'll never know

Who much I dug him
And all those songs he wrote
While me and my old lady
Sat and passed the pipe around

  • Beautiful tribute. I'm sure John would have loved it, especially the line from Poems, Prayers and Promises that you blended seamlessly into the song. Any chance of sharing the chords?

  • Nice song!! Did you write the lyrics? Though I have no english level, I managed to understand the lyrics, good tribute!

    Exactly how I felt when I heard the news. I realized how much I felt like I actually had known him, had had a relationship with him. He was an important part of my life for over 20 years, and is associated with some of my best memories of my youth. It was really hard to accept that he was gone.

  • wonderful !

  • ... that coincedentaly timing was spooky, but it's a nice tribute indeed :)

  • You should record it preoperly and put it on myspace . com :)

    I'll bet you have some frieds with a home studio or something ;)

    This song is a true gem! I know I'll download it!

  • Did you write this? :) Wonderfull lyrics and melody! Great song!

  • Bravo.... oddly enough i just had my girlfriend's 11 year old son watch "Oh God" and last week i downloaded John Dever LIVE from iTunes. Love the song.
