Ellsworth Lyrics
Rascal Flatts
Grandma burned the biscuits, nearly took the house down with it
Now she's in assisted living, we all knew that day would come
We knew she was too gone to drive, the day she parked on I-65
Found her on the shoulder cryin', she didn't know where she was
(Pre-echo)
It's like her mind just quit
Oh, but bring up grandpa, it's like someone flipped a switch
(Chorus)
A front porch light and a blue Desoto
Couple of straws in a Coca-Cola
You can see it all going down
A handsome boy in army green
Tear on his face, down on a knee
Shaky voice, a diamond ring
She'll put you in that town
Tomorrow she won't remember
What she did today
But just ask her about Ellsworth, Kansas 1948
She takes out his medals, a cigar box of letters
Sits and scatters pictures, black and whites of days gone by
(pre-echo)
We started losing her when she lost him
But to hear her carry on, you'd swear she's seventeen again
(Chorus)
Football games and leaves are cracklin'
Walking her home in his letter jacket
You could see it all going down
A perfect night on a front porch glider
Sayin' goodnight for the next three hours
Her tired eyes go wide and bright
When she talks about that town
Tomorrow she won't remember what she did today
But just ask her about Ellsworth, Kansas 1948
While the world is spinning all around her
Sharin' a sundae at the counter
He's goin' on and on about her
Bet she's right there right now
Tomorrow she won't remember what she did today
But just ask her about Ellsworth, Kansas 1948
Palamin0 did a great job on the chords, so I used the same ones. Thanks palamin0.
