AN OLD LOG CABIN FOR SALE
Recorded by Porter Wagoner
Words and music by J. W. Payte

[A] While strolling a-[D] long in the [A] country
Re-[E7]	viewing	the scenes new and [A] old
I found	an old-[D] fashioned log [A] cabin
So [E7]	beautiful there	to be-[A] hold;
A [D] stranger was standing in [A] silence
His [E7] eyes firmly fixed on the [A] door
My heart ached in [D] pity to [A] see him
For [E7] these were the	words that it [A] bore.

And the sign [D] read "An old [A] cabin FOR SALE
An [E7] old OAKEN BUCKET and [A] WELL."
"EASY TERMS, just [D] keep a [A] log on the fire
And a [E7] light burning bright in the [A] dell."
Many [D] years an old couple did [A] patiently look
For their [E7] boy whose last promise did [A] fail
Now the old rockin' [D] chair will be [A] rocking no more
There's	an [E7]	old log	cabin for [A] sale.

A welcome I read on the	floor mat
An old braided rug by the door The hands of an angel had made it With many a pray'r - prayed before; In an old rockin' chair, long she waited For one glimpse of him how she yearned And now he was standing in silence Too late, yes, too late he'd returned. And the sign [D] read "An old [A] cabin FOR SALE An [E7] old OAKEN BUCKET and [A] WELL." "EASY TERMS, just [D] keep a [A] log on the fire And a [E7] light burning bright in the [A] dell." Many [D] years an old couple so [A] patiently looked For their [E7] boy whose last promise did [A] fail Now the old rockin' [D] chair will be [A] rocking no more There's an [E7] old log cabin for [A] sale. Extra verse. How long has it been since you've written A letter to mother and dad? How long has it been since you've seen them Why don't you make their hearts glad? Too soon will the old home be vacant A candle light gleaming no more Don't wait till too late to remember There may be a sign on the door. TAG: There's ...no ...place ...like ...home.
