[Verse 1]
GIn the heart of the countryside,
Cwhere wind whispers through the fields,
DThere's an old barn and silo,
Gand memories revealed
GAs I walk through the doors
Cthey creak and they moan
Das the sun begins to fade
GAnd memories flood my soul
[Chorus]
GIn that old barn built by the hands
Cof my long distant kin
DI find solace in the stories
Gthat I was told again and again
GNames and initials, etched on its walls
Cstand the test of time
DAnd the old silo with a tree
Greaching for the sky.
[Verse 2]
GThe silo once held grain
Ca treasure from the land
DBut now it stands transformed
Gby nature's loving hand
GA tree sprouts from its top
Creaching for the endless blue
DA testament to resilience
Gin all that it's been through.
[Chorus]
GIn that old barn built by the hands
Cof my long distant kin
DI find solace in the stories
Gthat I was told again and again
GNames and initials, etched on its walls
Cstand the test of time
DAnd the old silo with a tree
Greaching for the sky.
[Bridge]
CI wonder how many seasons
Gthat barn has watched go by
DAs the tree and silo stood there
Gbeneath the changing sky
CThey've seen storms and sunshine
Gwitnessed good and bad
DThey are starting to show their age now
Gthrough the long life they've had
[Verse 3]
GI take a moment to sit
CIn the shade that it provides
DThinkin' 'bout memories and stories
Gwhere the past and present collide
GThe ol' barn and the silo
Cthey're both so special to me
DAnd now they give a home
Gto that one of a kind special tree
[Chorus]
GIn that old barn built by the hands
Cof my long distant kin
DI find solace in the stories
Gthat I was told again and again
GNames and initials, etched on its walls
Cstand the test of time
DAnd the old silo with a tree
Greaching for the sky.
[Outro]
GAs the sun begins to set
casting shadowCs on the land
DI leave this place so dear
but carGry it in my heart's hand
GFor the barn, the silo and the tree
Cthey hold a legacy
DA reminder of my roots
Gand the love that made me, me
