The Key to Life Vince Gill
Vince Gill - Key To Life
Capo 2 - For finger picking
[C]I'd love to hear my daddy play o[F]nce again
All the s[C]ongs taught me when I was a [G]kid
[C]John Henry, old shep, and f[F]aded love
[C]I fall to pieces and [G7]on the wing[C]s of a dove
Just a few chords on the banjo that was all he new
But in the eyes of a child man his fingers flew
I practiced and I practiced til I got it right
I packed up everything and just took off one night
I made it from the beer joints to the opry stage
He said the only difference was what your gettin paid
He didn't care that everybody knew my name
He said it's all for nothing if you don't stay the same
And when he died the preacher cried and said he's the lucky one
He's walking hand and hand with god's only son
My faith and common sence tell me the preachers right
But I'd love to hear the banjo ring for me tonight
I will [F]honor my father with these w[C]ords I right down
And as [F]long as I remember him he'll [C]always be aro[G]und
Man the [C]pain of losing him cuts like a r[F]andle knife
But I [C]learned a few chords on the [G7]banjo was the [C]key to life
Yeah the pain of losing him cuts like a randle knife
But I learned a few chords on the banjo was the key to life
