Rocking Alone In An Old Rocking Chair chords and lyrics - FRANK IFIELD

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[D]Roc[G]kin[A]g a[D]lone
in [A]an old rocking chair,
I saw an old lady with [D]silvery hair.
She seems so neglected
by [G]those who should care
[A]Rocking alone in her old rocking [D]chair
God bless her heart,
do you [A]think she'd complain
Though life has been bitter,
she'd [D]live it again and [G]carry [D]that cross
that is [G]more than her share,
[A]rocking along in her old [D]rocking chair.
Her hands were old calloused,
[A]wrinkled and old.
A life of hard work was the [D]story they told,
And I thought of an[Em]gels
[D]as [G]I saw her there
[A]Rocking along in her old [D]rocking chair
Drop a line to mother, boy
Remember [A]she's your friend
You know she's getting old and grey
And hastens toward[D]s the end
A line from you would cheer her up,
Would make her [G]whole heart glad,
For she'd know that you'd not
[A]forgotten her.
Go on and drop her a line, my [D]lad.
You took your troubles all to her,
[A]And she soothed your troubled brow,
She even chased those clouds away.
[D]Would you forget her now?
She is praying for you every day,
and no [G]word from you she's had.
[Em]A me[G]ssage now wo[A]uld
make her smile.
Go on and drop her a line, my [D]lad.
Remember that you only
have one [A]mother, boy,
and the one her place can take.
It'll be too late when she is gone,
so [D]go on and write for her sweet sake.
And she'll take you to her warm heart still,
[G]That's if you've [D]gone to the [Em]bad.
[A]So don't be ashamed to call her name,
Go on and drop her a line, [D]my lad.
Oh, I know some kiddies
in an [A]orphanage home
Who'd think they owned
heaven if she [D]was their
That'd never be willing
to [G]let her sit there
[A]Rocking alone in her old rocking [D]chair.
