[Verse]
G
There's a blue rocking chair,
C
sittin in the sand,
G
weathered by the storms,
D
and the well oiled hands,
G
It sways back and forth,
C
with the help of the wind,
Am
and it seems to always be there,
D
like an old trusted friend
[Chorus]
C
I've read alot of books
D
wrote a few songs
G
looked at my life, where it's going
G
where it's gone,
C
I've seen the world, through a bus winshield,
D
But nothing compares
C D
To the way that I see it, to the way that I see it,
C D
To the way that I see it when I sit,
(stop) G C D G
In that old blue chair
[Verse 2]
G
From that chair I've caught,
C
a few fish and some rays,
G
and I've watched boats sail,
D
In and out of cinnamon bays,
G
I've let go of a lover,
C
who took a piece of my heart,
Am
and prayed many times for forgiveness,
D
and a brand new start
[Chorus]
C
I've read alot of books
D
wrote a few songs
G
looked at my life, where it's going
G
where it's gone,
C
I've seen the world, through a bus winshield,
D
But nothing compares
C D
To the way that I see it, to the way that I see it,
C D
To the way that I see it when I sit,
(stop) G C D G
In that old blue chair
[Verse 3]
C
That chair was by bed one New Year's night,
G
When I passed out from too much Cruzan and diet,
C D
and I woke up to a hunderd mosquito bites I swear
C D
got 'em all sittin right there,
(stop) G C D G
In that old blue chair
G
There's a blue rocking chair
C
Sittin in the sand
D C
weathered by the storms and
(stop) G C D G
well oiled hands
