C It was just some boards of rough cut pine C G And a quilt of patch work cotton G A place to lay your body down D7 G Was that big four poster bed G Daddy built it out of pine C G Two days before the wedding G They say the neighbors cheered and hollered A7 D7 Till his face got red G And Mama brought the feather pillows C G And some handmade bedding G And they spent their wedding night D7 G In that big four poster bed G That night they swore like that bed C G Their love would last forever G And they'd ask no more of life A7 D7 Than the simple things they had G So they planed there future C G As they laid close together G And later I was born there D7 G In that big four poster bed C It was just some boards of rough cut pine C G And a quilt of patch work cotton C G A place to lay your body down A7 D7 A place to rest your head C A field of fluffy mountains C G For a little girl to hide in G Clouds and chasing rainbows D7 G Was that big four poster bed G I remember as a child waking up C G On a winter morning G With Sound of laughing voices A7 D7 And the smell of baking bread G And running across that coal wood floor C G Jumping there with them G And Lord I felt so safe and warm D7 G In that big four poster bed G The day that daddy died C G He whispered something soft to mama G To this day she's never told a soul A7 D7 The words he said G She just smiled through her tears C G And held his hand and nodded
And my daddy looked so much at rest
D7 G In that big four poster bed G Now time has dried up all the tears C G Here I stand a woman G Your arms reach out to touch my soul A7 D7 Your sweet words turn my head G Darling won't you tell me first C G This will be forever G Before you lead me up the stairs D7 G To that big four poster bed G Cause only love has ever touched D7 G That big four poster bed
