The Key TO Life
[D]I'd love to hear my daddy play once again, [G]
all the son[D]g's that he taught me when I was a kid.[A]
John Henr[D]y, Ol' Shep and Faded love,[G]
I fall to p[D]ieces, and on th[A]e wings of a dove.[D]
[D]Just a few chords on the banjo, that was all he knew,[G]
but in the eyes[D] of a child, man his fingers flew,[A]
I [D]practiced and I practiced till I got it ri[G]ght,
[D]Packed up everything a[A]nd just took off one night.[D]
[D]I made it from the beer joints to the Opre stage.[G]
He sai[D]d the only difference is what your gettin' paid.[A]
[D]He didn't care that everybody knew my name[G],
he sai[D]d its all for nothi[A]n' if you don't stay the[D] same.
[D]But when he died the preacher cried,
[G] [D] [A]said he's the lucky one, he's walkin' hand in hand with Gods only son.
My fai[D]th and common since tell me the preachers right,[G]
But I'd lo[D]ve to hear the banjo ri[A]ng for me tonight.[D]
And I will honor[G] my father with these words I write [D]down.
and as long[G] as I remember him he'll always be around.[D] [A]
And the pain [D]of loosing him cuts like a Randall knife.[G]
I learned a few c[D]hords on the banjo was th[A]e key to life.[D]
Yea the pain [D]of loosing him cuts like a Randall knife,[G]
I learned a few c[D]hords on the banjo was the[A] key to life.[D]
