The Chain Of Love
Clay Walker
(Jonnie Barnett/Rory Lee)
key of D
(Verse)
D
He was drivin' home one evening in his beat up Pontiac
When an old lady flagged him down her Mercedez had a flat
A
He could see that she was frightened, standin' out there in the snow
D
Til he said I'm here to help you maam, by the way my name's Joe
(Verse)
D
She said "I'm from St-Louis" and I'm only passin' through
I must've seen one hundred cars go by this is awful nice of you
A
When he changed the tire and closed her trunk and was about to drive away
D
She said how much do I owe you; here's what he had to say
(Chorus)
G D
You don't owe me a thing; I've been there too
A
And someone once helped me out
D
Just the way I'm helping you
G
If you really want to pay me back
D
Here's what you do
A D
Don't let the chain of love end with you
(Verse)
D
Well a few miles down the road the lady saw a small cafe
She went in to grab a bite to eat and then be on her way
A
But she couldn't help but notice how the waitress smiled so sweet
D
And how she must've been eight months along and dead on her feet
(Verse)
D
And though she didn't know her story and probably never will
When the waitress went to get her change from a hundred dollar bill
A
The lady slipped right out the door and on a napkin left a note
D
There were tears in the waitress' eyes when she read what she wrote
Repeat Chorus
(Verse)
D
That night when she got home from work the waitress climbed into bed
She was thinkin' about the money and what the lady's note had said
A
As her husband lay there sleepin' she whispered soft and low
D
Everything's gonna be alright; I love you - Joe
