[Intro]
Am D Am E Am
[Verse 1]
Am
Well it was where the family gathered at the end of a long holiday
E
Daddy was a man of few words but he had an awful lot to say
Am D
I still smell Sir Walter Raleigh's world and in the evenin' breeze
Am E Am
He'd open his mind with a little down-home front porch philosophy
[Chorus]
D
From politics to common sense, with a little John 3:16
Am E
It was down to earth lessons I learned sittin' at my Daddy's feet
Am D
Everybody and the dog would listen every time he started to speak
Am E Am
Rockin' back and forth, talkin' old front porch philosophy
[Instrumental]
Am D Am E Am
[Verse 2]
Am
Now he taught me all about a handshake and the man who backs it up
E
He said God's greatest blessing is a good woman's love
Am D
Never had a college education, just a blue-collar PHD
Am E Am
A little grit and grace, my old man's take on front porch philosophy
[Chorus]
D
From politics to common sense, with a little John 3:16
Am E
It was down to earth lessons I learned sittin' at my Daddy's feet
Am D
Everybody and the dog would listen every time he started to speak
Am E Am
Rockin' back and forth, talkin' old front porch philosophy
[Instrumental]

Everybody and the dog would listen every time he started to speak
Am E Am
It wasn't Socrates, but the man could preach front porch philosophy
