 OLD PORCH SWING - Gene Watson
 (G)It's hung there on the front porch
 Since this old house was built
 It's(D)where the old men whittle
 and the women fleece their(G)quilts
 It's held four generations 
 through whatever life could bring
 That ol'(D)swing That ol' porch(G)swing
 
 (G)It held a grieving widow
 when my daddy's daddy died
 and(D)now it rocks my children
 when they close their sleepy(G)eyes
 It's where I popped the question
 with a quarter karot ring
 That ol'(D)swing That ol' porch(G)swing(G7)
 
 (chorus)
 It's(C)been there through the sunshine 
 It's(G)had it's share of rain
 Been a(A)witness to some good times
 and a(D)like amount of pain(D7)
 If(G)it could tell it's story
 what a Violin could sing
 That ol'(D)swing That ol' porch(G)swing
 
 (G)It's where brother read the letter 
 that sent him off to war
 We(D)knew he had to go and fight
 but we didn't know what(G)for
 When he came home he just sat there
 and never said a thing
 In that(D)swing That ol' porch(G)swing
 
 (Repeat chorus)
 
 That ol'(D)swing That ol' porch(G)swing
 
 I would like to thank Ben Parrish for introducing me
 to this song.  It tells such a beautiful story and
 Gene sings it so well.
