Old Blue Chair (Ocean Mix)

There's a blue rockin' chair

Sittin' in the sand

Weathered by the storms

And well-oiled hands

It sways back and forth

With the help of the winds

It seems to always be there

Like an old trusted friend.



I've read a lot of books, wrote a few songs

Looked at my life, where it's goin', where it's gone

I've seen the world through a bus windshield

But nothin' compares

To the way that I see it

To the way that I see it

To the way that I see it

When I sit in that old blue chair.



From the chair I've caught

A few fish and some rays

And I've watched boats sail

In and out of Cinnamon Bay

I let go of a lover

That took a piece of my heart

And prayed many times for forgiveness

And a brand new start.



I've read a lot of books, wrote a few songs

Looked at my life, where it's goin', where it's gone

I've seen the world through a bus windshield

But nothin' compares

To the way that I see it

To the way that I see it

To the way that I see it

When I sit in that old blue chair.



That chair was my bed one new year's night

When I passed out from too much Cruzan and diet

And I woke up to a hundred mosquito bites I swear

Got 'em all sittin' right there

In that old blue chair.



There's a blue rockin' chair

Sittin' in the sand

Weathered by the storms

And well-oiled hands...



Moderator Notes: The lyrics version with the line that ends

with ''much Malibu and diet'' in the third verse which

replaces ''much Cruzan and diet'' is from the song version

titled: ''Old Blue Chair'' found on the same CD.
