Gentle On My Mind
Glen Campbell 1968
  (Circle D 218)   Les Hughes
 
two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK    Mainstream

Circle left
It's knowing that your door is always open
And your path is free to walk

Left allemande your corner, come home a dosado
The men star left now
Turn thru at home, with the corner allemande
Swing your own and promenade
You're moving on the backroads
By the rivers of my memory
For hours you're just gentle on my mind


FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Heads (sides) promenade, 1/2 way round the ring
Down the middle square thru go 4
4 hands and then, right & left thru my friend
Pass thru, trade by, swing thru the outside two
Boys you trade, turn thru somehow
Left allemande and promenade
You're moving on the backroads
By the rivers of my memory
For hours you're just (gentle on my mind)


CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face, grand square
The wheat fields & clotheslines & junk cars
And the highways come between us
And some other woman's crying to her mother
Cause she turned and I was gone

Allemande and weave
I stood in rain in silence till the doorknob stained my face
And the summer sun might burn me till I'm blind
But not to where I cannot see you walking
On the backroads by the rivers flowing gentle on my mind


TAG

*You're moving on the backroads
By the rivers of my memory
For hours you're just gentle on my mind


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*I'll keep you on the backroads
By the rivers of my memory
Ever smiling, ever gentle on my mind
