歌詞
[Intro] [Verse] Found it leaning by a rusty gate Tag said five dollars, don't be late Cedar frame was grey and worn Fabric seat was frayed and torn Brought it to my sawdust floor Through the heavy workshop door I could smell the mountain air Trapped inside that broken chair [Pre-Chorus] Sandpaper met the grain Scrubbing off the years of rain Deep inside the bottom rail I found a secret, holy grail [Chorus] It’s more than just a rocking chair It’s a mother’s hope and a father’s prayer Etched in 1975 Keeping all those dreams alive Every creak is a lullaby Underneath a wide-open sky [Post-Chorus] Let it rock, let it swing Hear the ghosts begin to sing In the dust, in the light Everything is gonna be alright [Verse] Faded blue ink on a hidden slat Written where the carpenter sat For little June, the morning star No matter just how far you are I tightened up the wooden joints With glue and steel at all the points He used a knife to carve her name Inside the heavy timber frame [Pre-Chorus] Sandpaper met the grain Scrubbing off the years of rain Deep inside the bottom rail I found a secret, holy grail [Chorus] It’s more than just a rocking chair It’s a mother’s hope and a father’s prayer Etched in 1975 Keeping all those dreams alive Every creak is a lullaby Underneath a wide-open sky [Post-Chorus] Let it rock, let it swing Hear the ghosts begin to sing In the dust, in the light Everything is gonna be alright [Bridge] My palms are stained with cedar red Thinking 'bout the words they said A legacy in every line A piece of them now piece of mine A father’s gift for his first child Born into the great untamed wild [Chorus] It’s more than just a rocking chair It’s a mother’s hope and a father’s prayer Etched in 1975 Keeping all those dreams alive Every creak is a lullaby Underneath a wide-open sky [Outro]
