Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[Am][Em][Am][C][Am]

[Verse 1]
[C]Shifting
the chair on [Am]the porch
For a [C]better position to [Am]enjoy
the warmth
[Em]Of the sun to keep [Am]warm[G]

[Verse 2]
And [C]working the needle [Am]and twine
[C]Lost in the furthest re[Am]cess of the mind
It is [Em]calm
There [Am]is peace
A [Em]cat on his lap and a[Am] dog at her [G]feet

[Verse 3]
But [C]oh the heart of [G]a man
The [Am]secrets they bury within
[F]And [G]oh [C]the causes that
[G]force his poor hand
[Am]Lead to be misled at those [F]de ceiving
[G]hand
[C][Am][C]

[Verse 4]
[Am]
And it's a [C]night among easily
de[Am]scribed
[C]Misunderstanding [Am]our thoughts
by and by
I'm barely [Em]here [E]if even at all[Am][G]

[Verse 5]
A [C]fear of the misunderstood
[Am]Invites the viol[C]ence right in
chasing [Am]off all the good
[Em]We brought all on [Am]ourselves
[E]Let it straight by the words
of [Am]somebody [G]else

[Verse 6]
And [C]oh the life of [G]a man
His [Am]head above the water
and pushed [F]under again
[G]And [C]oh I've seen it [G]one too many times
It's a [Am]test of the spirit versus
The [F]health of [G]the mind

[Verse 7]
[Dm]Oh b[G]ring relief [C]to him now
[G]And the peo[Am]ple he loves
[Dm]Oh I[G] know the feel[C]ing's
the [G]feeling but
[Am]Not what it's called o[Dm]h[G]
[C][Am][C][Am][G]

[Verse 8]
[C]Oh the will of [G]a man
And [Am]all his well meaning intent
[F]And[G] oh the[C] thought of it all[G][E]
As [Am]far as we've come
we're still [F]further [G]to go

[Verse 9]
[Dm]Oh a[G]ll the y[C]ears we lost
[G]They don't mean not[Am]hing at all
[Dm]Oh l[G]ifting the s[C]pirit
impres[G]sion of a [Am]son
[Dm]Oh b[G]ring some [C]peace to his h[G]eart
and a [Am]wondering [Dm]thought[G]
Bring [C]some peace to this [G]world and keep
[Am]passin' it on

[Outro 1]
[C][Am][Am][Am]
[Am]
