Song: The Storms of Life

Artist: Randy Travis

D

There's a dirty piece of cardboard

G

that reads Montgomery Ward

A D

taped across the window of my old Ford.

G

A six-pack on the front seat and a box of chicken wings,

A D D7

I'm dialin' 'cross the radio for a song that I can sing

G

I'd better change my wandrin ways,

D

I know I've seen my better days,

A D D7

always gettin' high when I get low.

G

Well, I left my soul out in the rain,

D

Lord, what a price I've had to pay.

A D

The storms of life are washin' me away.

An old mail pouch, tobacco sign

fadin' on the barn,

bringin' back sweet memories of Mama's farm/

When love was just a country girl that lived on down the road.

Spoken: you know, she almost had me turned around,

but that was years ago.

I'd better change my wandrin ways,

I know I've seen my better days,

always gettin' high when I get low.

Well, I left my soul out in the rain,

Lord, what a price I've had to pay.

The storms of life are washin' me away.

Yeah, the storms of life are washin' me away.

Howard

I was ten years old on my grandpa's farm when it happened

I remember my first crush was on the preacher's daughter

E

We were smoochin' on the front porch swing that night when he caught her

We weren't expectin' him home until quarter past ten

D

When the good Lord taught me that lesson again

You don't reach for the honey without smokin' the hive

Chorus: (Randy Travis,Clint Eastwood)

A D A

You don't point your pistol before you check each chamber

She rolled into town with rodeo,she was a beauty
