The Song Craig Morgan
Capo 1
[C]Barry Tolbert, Lookout Lane
He was white knuckling a diamond ring
[F]And fumbling for the dome light
[C]Sherry Lynn knows something's up
'Cause Berry ain't ever been stuck
[F]For words like he is tonight
[G]Since they pulled over, he[F]r hearts been beatin' faster
[G]Without that song, who knows, [F]he might have never asked
her
[C]Simple words put into [D]lines
Just a melody and [F]rhyme
But at that moment seemed so s[C-G]trong
[C]How can a piece of [D]poetry
Knock a grown man to his [F]knees
And lead him by the heart to [C]where he [G]belongs
[F]Then it came on
[C]The song
[C]Larry Pearson had a crutch
One more was never enough
[F]He'd say I can quit anytime
[C]The whole town knew his name
They'd all say what a shame
[F]He's wastin' away his life
[G]A strangers quarter dropped [F]into that corner jukebox
[G]It's been almost two years and [F]guess what made him stop
[C]Simple words put into [D]lines
Just a melody and [F]rhyme
But at that moment seemed so s[C-G]trong
[C]How can a piece of [D]poetry
Knock a grown man to his [F]knees
And lead him by the heart to [C]where he [G]belongs
[F]Then it came on
[C]The song [C-D-F-C-G]
[C]Simple words put into [D]lines
Just a melody and [F]rhyme
But at that moment seemed so [C-G]strong
[C]How can a piece of [D]poetry
Knock a grown man to his [F]knees
And lead him by the heart to [C]where he [G]belongs
[F]Like the song [C-F]
[F]Its more than just a [C]song
