HAND-CARVED HEART -Tom Russell
G C/G D C G C/G D
C C/G D C G C/G D
There’s an old Spanish oak bent over a country road
C G C/G D C G C/G D
If it could tell all that it knows of a hand-carved heart
C G C/G D C G C/G D
Once two lovers slept in its shade, his hands weaving thru her dark braids
C G C/G D C G
They shared the edge of a blade, carved their names in the bark
G C D G
Chorus: The heart it has darkened with the weather of years
G C F Am D
It may never fade away, washed clean with her tears
C D G C D
The human heart breaks with a hurt that runs deep through the blood
G C D G
I wish it was made out of wood, like a hand carved heart
C D C G C D C D G C D
Then he rode away down that old country road
Away from the old Spanish oak and the hand-carved heart
He said she’d be back one day, she waited, she wept and she prayed
She vowed he would never betray the hand-carved heart
Chorus: The heart it has darkened with the weather of years
It may never fade away, washed clean with his tears
The human heart breaks with a hurt that runs deep through the blood
G C D (G C D C) 3x
I wish it was made out of wood, like a hand carved heart
G C D G C D C
I wish it was made out of wood, like a hand carved heart
G C D C G……
