(Donna Hughes)

Donna Hughes: Lead Vocal

Kim Gardner: Dobro

Greg Luck: Guitar, Fiddle, Banjo

Johnny Dowdle: Bass

Ashby Frank: Mandolin

On a hillside back in the woods

Far away from town

There's an old abandoned graveyard

Lost & forgotten all about.

The world has changed and no one knows

The ones laid there to rest beneath the pines

Their names have faded on the forest floor

On the stones that are all they left behind.

If they were ever in a hurry

It didn't do them any good

Rich or poor they're all the same now

Resting in these old forgotten woods.

I still wonder where they came from

And if they felt the same as you and me

I wonder who will stand above me

When I come to rest beneath the autumn leaves.

Chorus: The world is turning the sun will shine

Without you and me

One day we'll leave it all behind

Underneath the autumn leaves...
