Drive Another Nail - Randy Travis

[Intro]
B C#m B F#7 B C#m B F#7 (Break)

[Verse]
B C#m B F#7
Sam was a carpenter 50 years
B C#m B F#7
he pounded out blood, sweat and tears
E F#7 E F#7
one day he hung his hammer up
B C#m B F#7
he wanted to do the things he loved
F#7 E
what once was Sunday fishin' now was 7 days a week
F#7 E F#
he told his wife "to find me, I?ll be down at the creek"

E B
I don't want to drive another nail
F#7 B B F#7 E
I?ve worked hard to do my job and I did it well
E B
I?ve got the scars on these two hands to show I haven't failed
C#m F#7 B C#m B F#7 Gm G#m
but I don?t want to drive another nail

[Bridge]
G#m E B
now she was a woman full of faith and old Sam was full of pride
G#m F#7 E F#7
and she knew he had one more job to do before he died

B C#m B F#7
Easter Sunday rolled around
B C#m B F#7
in a country church for the lost and found
E F#7 E F#7 E
oh, Sam was there against his will
B C#m B F#7
as the preacher spoke on Calvary?s hill
F#7 E
of how they took the master and they nailed him to a tree

F#7 E F#7
you could hear old Sam a cryin' as he fell down on his knees

E B
I don't wanna drive another nail

F#7 B B F#7 E
I want to live my life for you I want to do it well
E
you've got the scars on your two hands
B
that show where I have failed
C#m F#7 B
lord, I don't want to drive another nail

E B
I don't wanna drive another nail

F#7 B B F#7 E
I want to live my life for you I want to do it well
E
you've got the scars on your two hands
B
that show where I have failed
strum strum strum
C#m F#7 B
lord, I don't want to drive another nail
