Hank Snow – There’s The Chair

Here’s the house where we once lived That I had love too much to give

For the girl who said that she’ll be mine

And here’s the room where we both slept And when she laughed that’s where I wept

We had love so very hard to find

There’s the chair that held the man That held the girl that held the hand

That wore the ring that I no longer wear

And there’s the clock that used to chime But I’ve lost track of telling time

And there’s a picture I see everywhere

In the kitchen where she cook I can see her recepi book

And on the table there’s her favorite glass

In the dynama afraid do look Cause I will see that leather book

Sunday morning she was first to class

[ guitar ]

I pull up shades I pull up blinds cause it’s gone the tie that binds

It’s broken now but God knows I still care

Sometimes love is not too pretty when you find it’s gone

I guess now I lose my mind I’ve already lost a home

I walk these halls a hollow man I’m tryin’ to do the best I can

But I can’t walk away from yesterday

I try to be a stirring man and rule her with an iron hand

But sdomehow too much love come in the way

There’s the chair that held the man That held the girl that held the hand

That wore the ring that I no longer wear

And here’s the beer that I would drink To stop the mind that wants to think

About the girl who said she didn’t care

There’s the chair that held the man That held the girl that held the hand

That wore the ring that I no longer wear
