CHISELED IN STONE

CAPO 1


D MajorD
You ran cryin' to the bedroom

         G+G
I ran off to the bar,

A7A7               D MajorD
Another piece of heaven gone to hell,

D MajorD
the words we spoke in anger

          G+G
just tore my world apart,

   A7A7              D MajorD
And I sat there feeling sorry for myself.

D MajorD
Then that old man sat down beside me

           G+G
and looked me in the eye,

     A7A7              D MajorD
and said "Son, I know what you're going through,

D MajorD
You ought to get down on your knees

           G+G        A7A7           D MajorD
and thank your lucky stars, that you got someone to go home to."


(Chorus)

D MajorD     D7D7     G+G
You don't know about lonely,

      D MajorD
Or how long nights can be,

D MajorD             A7A7
Till you lived through the story

            D MajorD
That's still livin' in me,

       D7D7     G+G
And you don't know about sadness

          D MajorD
'til you faced life alone,

           A7A7
You don't know about lonely

           D MajorD
'til it's chiseled in stone.

D MajorD
So I brought these pretty flowers

           G+G
hoping you would understand

  A7A7          D MajorD
sometimes a man is such a fool,

D MajorD
Those golden words of wisdom

              D MajorD
from the heart of that old man,

A7A7                D MajorD
showed me I ain't nothing without you.


D MajorD     D7D7     G+G
You don't know about lonely,

      D MajorD
Or how long nights can be,

D MajorD             A7A7
Till you lived through the story

            D MajorD
that old man just told me,

       D7D7     G+G
And you don't know about sadness

          D MajorD
'til you faced life alone,

           A7A7
You don't know about lonely

           D MajorD
'til it's chiseled in stone.

           A7A7
You don't know about lonely,

           D MajorD
'til it's chiseled in stone.
