One Chord At A Time Lyrics

See, it's been exactly six weeks and three days

Since you decided we should go our separate ways

I started off by crying but I soon found that was wrong

And then I stumbled on a song

See everytime I feel a wave of sadness over me

I can cure it with a G, C or D

It doesn't have to be no Mozart or Beethoven to raise my spirits

Just three good chords with some inspiring lyrics

See the things that got me through were not my friends and not the drink

The power of a melody can make you stop and think

And now I'm feeling fine

Just one chord at a time

I look around my house and see the things you left behind

But it no longer feels like Gentle On My Mind

And it's only been a short time but I feel I've come so far

Thanks to this capo and this big old guitar

And I know that if we meet again, that pain it might return

I guess that's just another song that I will have to learn

Because now I'm feeling fine

Just one chord at a time

And I know that if I ever feel like I could go to heaven

I just play a C sharp minor or a C sharp minor seven

And now I'm feeling fine

Just one chord at a time

Now I'm feeling fine

The music is all mine

And now my heart can shine

Just one chord at a time

One chord at a time
