The Chair That's Yours

Verse 1

Justin walked the gravel path past the leaning iron gate

August heat still hanging on the stones

He brought a folding chair and a jar of sweet iced tea

Sat down so his grandpa wouldn't be alone

Verse 2

Said the corn came in early this year

Said the truck still pulls a little to the right

Said I met a girl who laughs like you did

And the crickets filled the silence of the night

Chorus

So come on home with me tonight

Come on home down Spring Drive

There's a porch light on and a chair that's yours

Come on home with me tonight

Verse 3

He felt the air go cool around his shoulders

Felt a hand rest gentle on his arm

Heard a voice like gravel and molasses

Say son you never once did any harm

Chorus

So come on home with me tonight

Come on home down Spring Drive

There's a porch light on and a chair that's yours

Come on home with me tonight

Bridge

Two sets of footsteps up the drive

Only one of them was his

The screen door creaked for both of them

And the kitchen smelled like her biscuits

Chorus

So come on home with me tonight

Come on home down Spring Drive

There's a porch light on and a chair that's yours

Come on home with me tonight

(Come on home) come on home with me tonight
