Highest Point In Seven Counties

A A There's a live oak on the front lawn D A A It was planted long before I was around E E And you should see the view at night when the sun goes down D A D And up stairs is the master suite it was built just for me A D A A And they say it's the highest point in seven counties D E A A Yes they say it's the highest point in seven counties Where I grew up the ferns grow wild D A A And these eyes have watered everyday E E And for all my time they bear no fruit today D A E D D And the greenest grass I've known grows behind this fence of stone A D A A And they say it's the highest point in seven counties D E A A Yes they say it's the highest point in seven counties Say we'd sit down together D A A And over store bought beans we'd bow our heads to pray E E But with each amen there's nothin' left to say D A E D D They call it luxury but it sure seems strange to me A D A A And they say it's the highest point in seven counties D E A A Yes they say it's the highest point in seven counties The debutantes they come callin' D A A And the well-to-do stop by from time to time E E I hear 'em whisper of the life I left behind D A D D Put my pride before my heart I stand tall and play the part A D A A For they say it's the highest point in seven counties D E A A Yes they say it's the highest point in seven counties See the mornin' finds me restless D A So I slip out to the balcony alone E E When he wakes will he notice that I'm gone D A E D D Pushed up to the edge I step out on the ledge A D A A For they say it's the highest point in seven counties D A A Yes they say it's the highest point in seven counties
