Rocking Chair
Key: DEnglish
Verse
DThere's an old rockin' chair castin' Gmemories everywhere D
On that old home porch across from Tipple's Astore.
DYou can see where the arm is worn
Where Gmy granddaddy rested his Darm
In that old rockin' Achair that don't rock no Dmore.
Chorus
GIf the rockin' chair could read the Dthoughts from people's minds
Oh the stories it would tell time after Atime.
DStories others never hear.
Of the Gthoughts one holds so Ddear.
Oh how I wish I could've Aread my grandpa's Dmind.
Verse
I Dwas born in a broken home I Gwas blinded by things gone Dwrong.
I had no vision of what the future held in Astore.
DJust a baby barely three
When Gmy granddaddy came to Dme
To rock me in the rockin' Achair that don't rock no Dmore.
Verse
DGranddaddy lived the Christian way truth and Ggoodness he Dportrayed.
He loved to gather his thoughts as he rocked on the hardwood Aporch.
DYes he loved to sit and rock.
Payin' Gno attention to the time on the Dclock.
And rocked me in the rockin' Achair that don't rock no Dmore.
