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. 
        E                                     A       E  
Just a baby barely three, when my granddaddy came for me 
                          B7                        E       E7  
To rock me in the rockin' chair that don't rock no more. 

            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 
Oh how I wish I coulda read my grandpa's mind.

Granddaddy lived the Christian way, truth and goodness he portrayed. 
                                                             B7 
He loved to gather his thoughts as he rocked on the hardwood floor 
    E                                   A                       E  
And while he?s sit and rock, he paid no mind to the time on the clock. 
                             B7                       E       E7
