The Song - Craig Morgan

The Song chords

Capo 1

C
Barry Tolbert, Lookout Lane 

He was white knuckling a diamond ring 
F
And fumbling for the dome light 
C
Sherry Lynn knows something's up 

'Cause Berry ain't ever been stuck 
F
For words like he is tonight 
G                         F
Since they pulled over, her hearts been beatin' faster 
G                             F
Without that song, who knows, he might have never asked 
her 


C                     D
Simple words put into lines 
                  F
Just a melody and rhyme 

    hide ad ⨯
    

        

    



                              C-G
But at that moment seemed so strong 
C                  D
How can a piece of poetry 
                         F
Knock a grown man to his knees 
                             C        G
And lead him by the heart to where he belongs 
F
Then it came on 
C
The song 


C
Larry Pearson had a crutch 

One more was never enough 
F
He'd say I can quit anytime 
C
The whole town knew his name 

They'd all say what a shame 
F
He's wastin' away his life 
G                           F
A strangers quarter dropped into that corner jukebox 
G                              F
It's been almost two years and guess what made him stop 


C                     D
Simple words put into lines 
                  F
Just a melody and rhyme 
                              C-G
But at that moment seemed so strong 
C                  D
How can a piece of poetry 
                         F
Knock a grown man to his knees 
                             C        G
And lead him by the heart to where he belongs 
F
Then it came on 
C        C-D-F-C-G
The song 


C                     D
Simple words put into lines 
                  F
Just a melody and rhyme 
                             C-G
But at that moment seemed so strong 
C                  D
How can a piece of poetry 
                         F
Knock a grown man to his knees 
                             C        G
And lead him by the heart to where he belongs 
F              C-F
Like the song 
F                    C                   
Its more than just a song
