[F] [C]
I take this walk once a week, [G] and cool my beer in a running creek
[A] Take the [Am] boots off my feet and just sit [F] awhile
[C] With my back against an old [G] oak tree, I close my eyes, pretend it speaks
[Am] And tell it all my troubles and [F] my dreams
If there's tree [Am] cato, you [F] say hush up boy
[C]
Just be quiet, everything's [Em] gonna be [G] alright
[Am] Now son, [F] dry up those tears
And [C] free your mind [G] from all those fears
And just sit [C] awhile
[F] [C] So I wipe away my last tear, [G] and finish up my last beer
And [Am] put on my boots and leave with a [F] smile
[C] From these woods in the south, [G] I head to an old brick house
[Am] Walk up on that porch and just sit [F] awhile
If there's house [Am] cato, you [F] say hush up boy
[C]
Just be quiet, everything's [G] gonna be alright
[Am] Now son, [F] dry up those tears
And [C] free your mind [G] from all those fears
And just sit [C] awhile
[F] Now houses will crumble, [C] and trees they'll fall down
[Am] But the empty spot in my heart still [G] remains
[F] That creek may stop running, [C] and I may leave this town
[Am] But the words in that stone will never [G] change
[C] So I take a drive when I'm weak, [G] late at night when I can't sleep
[F] And turn [C] your favorite station [F] up [C] real loud
Leave my hair lies on your name
[G] Then I kneel beside your [F] grave and start to pray
Man, [C] it's been a while
If he [Am] could talk, he'd [F] say hush up boy
[C] Don't be scared, cause [G] I'm everywhere
[Am] Now son, [F] dry up those tears
And [C] close your eyes, [G] cause I'm right here
Now [C] let's sit awhile
Yeah, let's sit awhile
