Chippin' Away (3:55)
words & music by Tom Fedora ©1986 Moondrop Music
They say the mountain is high
And you'll never move it.
Ah, but before I believe that,
They'll just have to prove it.
I have a hammer in my hand,
And faith in my heart.
I've already waited too long,
And I'm ready to start.
Chippin' away, little by little, day by day.
Chippin' away, and the walls will come tumbling down.
Oh what a wonderful sound.
There is a wall around the church,
And a wall around the prison.
I think the wall around your heart, baby
Is blocking out your vision.
So put a hammer in your hand,
And faith in your heart.
You've already waited too long
Aren't you ready to start.
Chippin' away, little by little, day by day.
Chippin' away, and the walls will come tumbling down,
Oh what a wonderful sound.

Chippin' Away
Graham Nash's "Chippin' Away" stands as a poignant reflection on the fleeting nature of youth and the passage of time, delivered with his signature acoustic clarity. Recorded during his tenure with Crosby, Stills & Nash, the track captures the melancholic introspection characteristic of his solo work while maintaining the collaborative spirit of the trio. The song's gentle melody and Nash's emotive vocals create an intimate atmosphere, inviting listeners to contemplate the bittersweet reality of growing older. As part of his broader discography, the recording exemplifies the soft rock and folk influences that defined his career, offering a timeless reminder of the moments we hold dear before they slip away. |
