What You Already Have

Verse 1

My old man worked the same fields forty years

Came home tired every single night

Never chased a bigger house or a brighter car

Just mama on the porch and the porch light on

I asked him once if he ever wanted more

He laughed and said son look around

Pre-Chorus

You can't hold a sunrise in your hands

You can't keep a good year from rolling past

Chorus

So slow down

Let the good stuff find you

Slow down

Let the good stuff stay

You been running so long toward a perfect horizon

You forgot what you already have

Verse 2

My little girl turned nine last Tuesday

Blew out candles on a store-bought cake

I was checking my phone through the whole dang song

Missed her grinning at me across the room

That night I sat out on the back step

Wondering what I'm even chasing anymore

Pre-Chorus

The grass ain't greener past the county line

It just looks that way from far away

Chorus

So slow down

Let the good stuff find you

Slow down

Let the good stuff stay

You been running so long toward a perfect horizon

You forgot what you already have

Bridge

Blessings don't announce themselves

They arrive plain and quiet

Supper on the table

Somebody waiting up

Chorus

Slow down

Let the good stuff find you

Slow down

Let the good stuff stay

You been running so long toward a perfect horizon

You forgot what you already have

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh
