Capo 1
C
Barry Tolbert, Lookout Lane
He was white knuckling a diamond ring
F
And fumbling for the dome light
C
Sherry Lynn knows something's up
'Cause Berry ain't ever been stuck
F
For words like he is tonight
G F
Since they pulled over, her hearts been beatin' faster
G F
Without that song, who knows, he might have never asked
her
C D
Simple words put into lines
F
Just a melody and rhyme
C-G
But at that moment seemed so strong
C D
How can a piece of poetry
F
Knock a grown man to his knees
C G
And lead him by the heart to where he belongs
F
Then it came on
C
The song
C
Larry Pearson had a crutch
One more was never enough
F
He'd say I can quit anytime
C
The whole town knew his name
They'd all say what a shame
F
He's wastin' away his life
G F
A strangers quarter dropped into that corner jukebox
G F
It's been almost two years and guess what made him stop
C D
Simple words put into lines
F
Just a melody and rhyme
C-G
But at that moment seemed so strong
C D
How can a piece of poetry
F
Knock a grown man to his knees
C G
And lead him by the heart to where he belongs
F
Then it came on
C C-D-F-C-G
The song
C D
Simple words put into lines
F
Just a melody and rhyme
C-G
But at that moment seemed so strong
C D
How can a piece of poetry
F
Knock a grown man to his knees
C G
And lead him by the heart to where he belongs
F C-F
Like the song
F C
Its more than just a song
