[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Well, I was raised on dirt roads and rusty rain,
Mamaās whisperinā grace through the windowpane.
She said, āHeartacheās a shadow, but loveās the light,
Hold it close when the world donāt f***t right.ā
Daddy worked the fields, calloused hands and pride,
Taught me roots grow deeper when the winds ride high.
Now Iām standinā here, scars and all Iāve gained,
Every stumble and rise tied to loves unbroken chain.
[Chorus]
Oh, itās the compass in the chaos, the river in the rain,
A fire in the hollows where the hurt canāt remain.
When the nights get heavy, and the road feels slain,
Iām carried by the weight of loves unbroken chain.
[Verse 2]
Met him āneath a oak tree, summer sweet as wine,
His smile cut through thunder, like the Georgia pine.
We built a life from nothinā, two hearts scrapinā by,
Plantinā seeds in the ashes where the old dreams died.
Then the storm rolled in, took the roof and the rye,
But we held fast like the stars in a coal-black sky.
He said, āDarlinā, aināt no mountain we canāt rearrange,
Long as weāre anchored in loves unbroken chain.ā
[Chorus]
Oh, itās the compass in the chaos, the river in the rain,
A fire in the hollows where the hurt canāt remain.
When the nights get heavy, and the road feels slain,
Iām carried by the weight of loves unbroken chain.
[Verse 3]
Now our youngāuns laugh where the creek runs clear,
Theyāll learn the same old truths weāve held dear.
That love aināt just whispers or a fleeting name,
Itās the backbone of the South, and it burns like a flame.
So when Iām dust and the porch swingās still,
Theyāll sing this hymn ācross the Tennessee hills.
A testament to the f***t, the joy, the pain,
Forever bound in loves unbroken chain.
[Chorus]
Oh, itās the compass in the chaos, the river in the rain,
A fire in the hollows where the hurt canāt remain.
When the nights get heavy, and the road feels slain,
Iām carried by the weight of loves unbroken chain.
