Name On A Stone by John Corbett
[Intro]
D A Bm G
D G
It was just me and the preacher standing in the rain
D A G
The day we laid my daddy in the ground.
D G
We waited for his friends to show, nobody came
D A D
So we said a prayer and headed back to town.
A Bm
And I thought about him, how sad his life had been
G D
I swore that someday I'd do something worth remembering
[Chorus]
G D
I'd be more than just a name on a stone
G Bm
More than just a box full of bones.
G D A
I want someone to miss me when I'm gone
G D
I want to be more than just a name on a stone.
[Instrumental]
D A Bm G
D G
I wanna pick the Wildwood Flower, catch a baseball in the stands
A G
Learn to tell some jokes and make folks laugh
D G
I wanna find the perfect woman, wanna sail a boat to France
A D
Throw caution to the wind and not look back.
A Bm
I wanna make a million memories, make a million friends
G D
And have 'em gather all around me when my journey ends
[Chorus]
A Bm
I wanna be more than just a guy, who never lived, then he died, with
A
nothing to show
G Bm
But some dates above a grave, that the years have washed away
A D
Don't you know, don't you know I want to be
[Chorus]
A G
I want to be more than just a name
A D
Much more than just a name on a stone.
A Bm G
Name on a stone
