Capo 2nd Fret Banjo tuned E, play key of D
Intro: Follow pattern of last line in first verse*
(D) Sitting alone in an (A) old rockin' (A7) chair
I saw an old mother with (D) silvery hair
She seemed so neglected by (G) those who should (Em) care
*(A) Rockin' alone in an (A7) old rockin' (D) chair
(D) Her hands were caloused, (A) wrinkled and (A7) old
A life of hard work was the (D) story they told
And I've thought of angels as (G) I saw her (Em) there
(A) Rockin' alone in an (A7) old rockin' (D) chair
Instrumental: Same as intro*
(D) Bless her old heart do you (A) think she'd com-(A7)-plain
Though life has been bitter she'd (D) live it again
And carry the cross that is (G) more than her (Em) share
(A) Rockin' alone in an (A7) old rockin' (D) chair
(D) It wouldn't take much to (A) gladden her (A7) heart
Just some small remembrance on (D) somebody's part
A letter would brighten her (G) empty life (Em) there
(A) Rockin' alone in an (A7) old rockin' (D) chair
Instrumental: Same as intro*
(D) I know some kids in an (A) orphan's (A7) home
Who’d think they owned heaven if (D) she was their own
They'd never be willing to (G) let her sit (Em) there
(A) Rockin' alone in an (A7) old rockin' (D) chair
(D) I look at her and I (A) think what a (A7) shame
The ones who forgot her she (D) loves just the same
And I think of angels as (G) I see her (Em) there
(A) Rockin' alone in an (A7) old rockin' (D) chair
