All For The Sake Of The Song

Clay Blaker/Tommy Connors

Recorded by Roger Creager

INTRO: C – G – C - G

C F C

Her name was Stella, and she was old and gray

G C

She had rusty strings and keys

F C

And to tune her it took a pair of pliers

G C

And lots of elbow grease

F C

She awakened me to the melody

F C F C F

Like the light from a brand new dawn

C F

From that moment on

C G C

It was all for the sake of the song

C F C

Her name was Maggie, she had eyes like fire

G C

That burned for me in the dark

F C

All she wanted was my very soul

G C

And all she could take from my heart

F C

But to her dismay a choice was made

F C F C F

And when that deed was done

C F

She turned and I was gone

C G C

It was all for the sake of the song

CHORUS

C F G C

And for the sake of the song, I walked my own road

F G C

For the sake of the song, not for silver and gold

F G C

Some may think I’m wrong, but in my heart I know

F G C

I’ve known all along, it was all for the sake of the song

C F C

Her name was Laura, and she was pure like crystal

G C

Shinin' alone on the shelf

F C

And from the moment that her eyes met mine

G C

I knew there could be nobody else

F C

Kindred souls singin’ free in perfect harmony

F C F C F

Two hearts beat now as one

C F

The road goes on and on

C G C

And it’s all for the sake of the song

CHORUS

C F G C

And for the sake of the song, I walked my own road

F G C

For the sake of the song, not for silver and gold

F G C

Some may think I’m wrong, but in my heart I know

F G C

I’ve known all along, it was all for the sake of the song

C

Her name is Stella
