Old Porch Swing Teclado

	   
 
     D          F#m/A             D7 
It's hung there on the front porch 
                         Bm 
Since this old house was built 
     A        
It's where the old men whittle 
                           D 
And the women fleece their quilts 
          D         F#m/A 
It's held four generations  
                            Bm 
Through whatever life could bring 
         A  
That ol' swing  
               D 
That ol' porch swing 
 
 
It held a grieving widow 
When my daddy's daddy died 
And now it rocks my children 
When they close their sleepy eyes 
It's where I popped the question 
With a quarter karot ring 
That ol' swing 
That ol' porch swing 
 
     G 
It's been there through the sunshine  
     D 
It's had it's share of rain 
       E7 
Been a witness to some good times 
      A 
And a like amount of pain 
   D                  F#m/A     D7     
If it could tell it's stories 
                    Bm 
What a ballad could sing 
         A   
That ol' swing  
                D 
That ol' porch swing
 
 
 
 
 
Move Capo to 2 (same chords) 
 
It's where brother read the letter  
That sent him off to war 
We knew he had to go and fight 
But we didn't know what for 
When he came home he just sat there 
And never said a thing 
In that swing  
That ol' porch swing 
 
Chorus: 
It's been there through the sunshine  
It's had it's share of rain 
Been a witness to some good times 
And a like amount of pain 
If it could tell it's story 
What a Violin could sing 
That ol' swing  
That ol' porch swing 
 
That ol' swing  
That ol' porch swing...
