"Rockin' Alone (In an Old Rockin' Chair)"
Intro: E
E B
Sitting alone in an old rocking chair
B7 E
I saw an old mother with silvery hair
A
She seemed so neglected by those who should care
B E
Rocking alone in an old rocking chair
E B
Her hands were all callused and wrinkled and old
B7 E
A life of hard work was the story they told
A
And I thought of angels as I saw her there
B E
Rocking alone in an old rocking chair
E B
Bless her old heart, do you think she'd complain
B7 E
Though life has been bitter she'd live it again
A
And carry that cross that is more than her share
B E
Rocking alone in an old rocking chair
E B
It wouldn't take much just to gladden her heart
B7 E
Just some small remembrance on somebody's part
A
A letter would brighten her empty life there
B E
Rocking alone in an old rocking chair
E B
I look at her and I think "What a shame"
B7 E
The ones who forgot her she loves just the same
A
And I think of angels as I see her there
B E
Rocking alone in an old rocking chair
E
End
