[Intro]
[Verse]
Old hinges start to creak
The floorboards start to speak
Sunlight hits the dust
Metal turning to rust
Smell of pine in the air
Found my old wooden chair
[Pre-Chorus]
Chalkboards faded to grey
Memories won't fade away
The master's ghost is here
Whispering in my ear
[Chorus]
He taught me how to sand
The rough parts of my hand
Measure twice before the cut
When the doors of life are shut
It’s more than just a frame
Or a simple family name
It’s the heart inside the wood
Doing the best we could
[Verse]
A box tucked on the shelf
Hidden by the man himself
Chipped and worn at the edge
Sitting on a dusty ledge
Handwritten notes inside
Nowhere for the truth to hide
Scrawled in ink so blue
Every word rang true
[Chorus]
He taught me how to sand
The rough parts of my hand
Measure twice before the cut
When the doors of life are shut
It’s more than just a frame
Or a simple family name
It’s the heart inside the wood
Doing the best we could
[Bridge]
When the grain starts to split
Don't you ever think of quit
Glue the pieces back tight
Work through the lonely night
A man is built by hand
Solid like the land
[Verse]
I put my work gloves on
Though the teacher is gone
I can still feel the heat
Of the shop on Main Street
The lessons didn't end
With a hammer or a bend
They live in every repair
In the heavy summer air
[Chorus]
He taught me how to sand
The rough parts of my hand
Measure twice before the cut
When the doors of life are shut
It’s more than just a frame
Or a simple family name
It’s the heart inside the wood
Doing the best we could
[Hook]
Fixing what was broke
In the curls of cedar smoke
Fixing what was broke
In the curls of cedar smoke
[Outro]
