The Handing Down Lyrics

	The handing down, the handing down
	Maybe the truth will not be shown
	And the dark will just roll on and on. Roll
	O three rivers where’s that star you once
	Held above my faded dreams
	Heart worn more than some I guess
	But I’m still holding at the seams
	Still holding at the seams.
	Scarecrow holds an hourglass
	Above the cross roads for me
	Filled with tears and twilight
	From a friend’s dying day
	Here’s a turkey feather for his favourite hat
	And a love letter from the ace of spades
	A love letter from the ace of spades
	An anchor in the crown
	Of Queen Anne’s lace and chicory
	A charm, a charm to drive away
	All the heartaches I gave
	All the goodbyes and the 'I love you's
	I said but not in time
	But mine is the heart of lonesome pine
	And the choices weren’t always mine
	The choices weren’t always mine

	The handing down, the handing down
	Maybe the truth will not be shown
	And the dark will just roll on and on. Roll
	O three rivers where' s that star you once
	Held above my faded dreams
	Heart worn more than some I guess
	But I' m still holding at the seams
	Still holding at the seams.
	Scarecrow holds an hourglass
	Above the cross roads for me
	Filled with tears and twilight
	From a friend' s dying day
	Here' s a turkey feather for his favourite hat
	And a love letter from the ace of spades
	A love letter from the ace of spades
	An anchor in the crown
	Of Queen Anne' s lace and chicory
	A charm, a charm to drive away
	All the heartaches I gave
	All the goodbyes and the ' I love you' s
	I said but not in time
	But mine is the heart of lonesome pine
	And the choices weren' t always mine
	The choices weren' t always mine

	The handing down, the handing down
	Maybe the truth will not be shown
	And the dark will just roll on and on. Roll
	O three rivers where' s that star you once
	Held above my faded dreams
	Heart worn more than some I guess
	But I' m still holding at the seams
	Still holding at the seams.
	Scarecrow holds an hourglass
	Above the cross roads for me
	Filled with tears and twilight
	From a friend' s dying day
	Here' s a turkey feather for his favourite hat
	And a love letter from the ace of spades
	A love letter from the ace of spades
	An anchor in the crown
	Of Queen Anne' s lace and chicory
	A charm, a charm to drive away
	All the heartaches I gave
	All the goodbyes and the ' I love you' s
	I said but not in time
	But mine is the heart of lonesome pine
	And the choices weren' t always mine
	The choices weren' t always mine
