Rockin Chair

Verse E A E There's an old rockin' chair spreading memories everywhere B7 On that old home porch across from Tipple's store. E A E You can see where the wood is worn, where my granddaddy rested his arm B7 E As he rocked me in that rockin' chair that don't rock no more. E A E I was horn in a broken home, I was blinded by things gone wrong. B7 Had no vision of what the future held in store.

[Refrão] A E If that old rockin' chair could read, the thoughts from people's mind B7 Oh the stories it could tell time after time. E A E Stories others never hear, of the thoughts one holds so dear.

B7 E E7 And rocked me in the rockin' chair that don't rock no more. [Refrão] A E If that old rockin' chair could read, the thoughts from people's mind B7 Oh the stories it could tell time after time.
