CHISELED IN STONE
CAPO 1
D
You ran cryin' to the bedroom
G
I ran off to the bar,
A7 D
Another piece of heaven gone to hell,
D
the words we spoke in anger
G
just tore my world apart,
A7 D
And I sat there feeling sorry for myself.
D
Then that old man sat down beside me
G
and looked me in the eye,
A7 D
and said "Son, I know what you're going through,
D
You ought to get down on your knees
G A7 D
and thank your lucky stars, that you got someone to go home to."
(Chorus)
D D7 G
You don't know about lonely,
D
Or how long nights can be,
D A7
Till you lived through the story
D
That's still livin' in me,
D7 G
And you don't know about sadness
D
'til you faced life alone,
A7
You don't know about lonely
D
'til it's chiseled in stone.
D
So I brought these pretty flowers
G
hoping you would understand
A7 D
sometimes a man is such a fool,
D
Those golden words of wisdom
D
from the heart of that old man,
A7 D
showed me I ain't nothing without you.
D D7 G
You don't know about lonely,
D
Or how long nights can be,
D A7
Till you lived through the story
D
that old man just told me,
D7 G
And you don't know about sadness
D
'til you faced life alone,
A7
You don't know about lonely
D
'til it's chiseled in stone.
A7
You don't know about lonely,
D
'til it's chiseled in stone.
