Written In Stone

Randy Travis


Tom: D

D
I'm gonna take you down to the riverside where the water runs slow and wide
G
There's a big ole rock out in the middle and I took my hammer and chisel
D
And worked all night so you could see just how much you mean to me
G
I carved your name right next to mine and it'll be there til the end of time
A              G                  A
And my love'll last at least than long

                G
It's written in stone how I fell for you
                D
It's written in stone what I wanna do
         C                                 D
Spend my life and the life hereafter lovin you
                 G
And darlin if we live to be a hundred
               D
or if we don't make it half that long
              C                                      D
I want you to know what I fell for you is written in stone

G
There's a place on the edge of town when I was a kid I found
G
Two names on a stone together lyin side by side forever
D
and it was then and there I knew if I ever thought a love was true
G
I'd surely wanna write it down on something that would be around
A                   G                   A
When all the spoken words have come and gone

                G
It's written in stone how I fell for you
                D
It's written in stone what I wanna do
         C                                 D
Spend my life and the life hereafter lovin you
                 G
And darlin if we live to be a hundred
               D
or if we don't make it half that long
              C                                      D
I want you to know what I fell for you is written in stone

A                      G                                 A
And when this love has come and gone our love will still be

                G
It's written in stone how I fell for you
                D
It's written in stone what I wanna do
         C                                 D
Spend my life and the life hereafter lovin you
                 G
And darlin if we live to be a hundred
               D
or if we don't make it half that long
              C                                      D
I want you to know what I fell for you is written in stone
