More Than Just This Song
By: Brad Paisley with Steve Wariner
Intro. : C - F - C - F
Stanza I:
C Bm Am G F
Like a boat on the river, this bus is floatin’ down this old highway
G7 C
Lookin out the window, I think about how I got here today
C Bm Am G F
Anyone who’s anywhere had some help gettin’ there it’s true
G7
And one of the reasons why I get to do the things I do
Chorus I:
C Am F Em G
I met this angel with callous hands who let this boy into his band
C Am F Em G
Under his wing, I learned to fly on these six strings through this life
F C G G#m Am G
You can hear him in my playin’ although he’s gone
F G C A
And I owe him so much more just this song
Stanza II:
D C#m Bm A G
Like a leaf that had fallen, I was driftin’ down the stream
A7 D
Mister guitar came into my life and let me build this dream
D C#m Bm A G
His old Gretch’s still speakin’, it’s teachin’ all of us a ton
He was my (A)friend and my hero all wrapped up in one
Chorus II:
D Bm G F#m A
I met this angel with callous hands who let this naïve boy into his band
D Bm G F#m A
Under his wing I learned to fly on these six strings into the light
G D A Bbm Bm A
I can still hear him playin’ although he’s gone
G A D G D G
And I owe him so much more than just this song
Bridge:
A Bm G F#m
Every fake we see from every take we roll
A Bm G F#m A
With every note we play even though they’re gone
Bm A G
They live on,
Bm A G
they ive on...
