Old Rocking Chair Don't Rock Anymore

Verse 1

The old rocking chair sits quiet on the porch

Wind blows through the empty of that space

Grandpa's gone to Heaven on the highest hill

But his chair still holds a sacred trace

Pre-Chorus

It don't creak the way it used to

It don't sway with any motion now

Chorus

This old rocking chair don't rock anymore

But it rocks my heart with every sight

Every kid in town came running to his door

For the tales he told us every night

Verse 2

We'd play checkers on a Sunday afternoon

He'd build his model cars with patient hands

Helped grandma in the garden till the moon

Then nap right there where the morning lands

Pre-Chorus

Grandma'd nudge his shoulder gently

Say it's time to come on in the house

Chorus

This old rocking chair don't rock anymore

But it rocks my heart with every sight

Every kid in town came running to his door

For the tales he told us every night

Bridge

A river flows of memories in my mind

Tappin' foot and pages turning slow

He's rockin' on a golden porch in time

Where the seeds of love forever grow

Chorus

This old rocking chair don't rock anymore

But it rocks my heart with every sight

Every kid in town came running to his door

For the tales he told us every night

Outro

Mm

Nothing but memories

Mm

This old chair don't rock no more
