Settling In - Luke Laird, Lori McKenna, Barry Dean
[Intro]
G C G
C G D
[Verse 1]
G C G
By the sun on my skin, you can tell where I've been
C G D
I took a short walk down a hard road and I dug my roots right in
C G F# Em
I want to do it all, then do it all again
G D G
Good Lord don't take me now, I'm just settling in
[Verse 2]
G C G
By the books on my shelf, you can tell I taught myself
C G D
By doing it the wrong way till I learned to ask for help
C G F# Em
Family photos in the hallway of every me I've ever been
G D G
Good Lord don't take me now, I'm just settling in
[Chorus]
C G D G
Like the grass on the path, like the leather on the Bible
C G D
Like the road where the wheels know where to go
C G F# Em
Life's like the raindrops in the river carving out the perfect bend
G D G
Good Lord don't take me now, I'm just settling in
[Verse 3]
G C G
By the pictures I can't show no one and how we got our nicknames
C G D
And the way we laugh at stories we can't tell
C G F# Em
Takes a lifetime of strangers to find some real good friends
G D G
Good Lord don't take me now, I'm just settling in
[Chorus]
C G D G
Like the grass on the path, like the leather on the Bible
C G D
Like the strings on this guitar tell my fingers where to go
C G F# Em
I've always thought I'd be an unsteady paper airplane on the wind
G D
Good Lord don't take me now, I'm just settling in
[Solo]
G C G
C G D
C G F# Em
G D G
(Same as verse chords)
[Verse 4]
G C G
I finally see the blessings in the things I might've missed
C G D
I'm still too young and stubborn to say what the meaning is
C G F# Em
I don't have all the answers but it's starting to make sense
G D G
Good Lord don't take me now, I'm just settling in
G D G
Good Lord don't take me now, I'm just settling in
