A Stitch In The Hand

Lời bài hát kèm hợp âm cùng dòng

[Verse 1]
[G]Now I can't say there's
any laws
[C]that rolling stones don't gather moss,
[D]I wouldn't g[C]ather any if I[D] could.
But though [G]my friends keep selling me
this [C]handy folk philosophy,
[D]more I've heard the
[C]less I've [G]understood.
Don't ever count your rolling stone[D]s
till they gather moss,
Cause when good shit's in the hand
that's worth two grid[G]s,
you can't cross it, baby,
don't [C]look back [D]to see what you've
[G]been through[Em]
[D]Cause something might be getting ground

[Verse 2]
on [G]you

[Verse 3]
I used to be [G]the cautious kind,
[C]never entered nothing blind,
[D]and I came to every bridge
[C]before [D]I crossed
And I al[G]ways looked before I

[Verse 4]
[C]leaped,
until some educated creep
[D]told me that a few hes[C]itations [G]lost
Well, that started me to thinking,
which is some[C]times
worse than drinking,
[D]before too long I'd have
[C]really worn [D]my mind
But I [G]found that what
some people said
was how [C]a man could get ahead
[D]was someone else's way [C]to fall behind
[G]Don't ever count your rolling stones
[D]until you've got them all
Cause a good stitch in the hand's
worth two rib[G]s,
you can't cross them baby,
don't [C]look back [D]to see what you've been through
[G]Tho[Em]ugh something mig[D]ht
be getting ground on [G]you
It seems to me that when I try to walk
[C]toward my head up high,
[D]while keeping both feet on [C]the ground,
[D]I stumble over things
[G]If I never tried to climb,
I [C]wouldn't fall down all the time,
[D]but neither would a frog [C]if [G]he had wings
Did you ever stop and wonder
if [C]Athens makes a heart grow [D]fonder
or if out of sight is [C]really out [D]of mind?
While [G]you sit there coolly sippin'
try [C]keepin' a stiff upper lip
and push[D]in' in the tarp
[C]at the [G]same time.
Don't ever count your rollin' stone[D]s
until they gather moss
Cause a good stitch in the hand
is worth two bridges [G]you
can't cross
And baby, don't [C]look back [D]to see
what [G]you've been through
[Em]Though [D]something might
be getting ground on [G]you
