    Boats To Build
    (Verlon Thompson/Guy Clark)
    Well it's time for a change
    I'm tired of the same ol' same
    Same old words, same old rhymes
    Same old tricks and the same old lines
    Days, precious days
    They roll in and out like waves
    I've got boards to bend and planks to nail
    I've got charts to make and seas to sail
    I'm gonna build me a boat with these two hands
    A fair curve from a noble plan
    I'll let the chips fall where they will
    Cause I've got boats to build
    Now sails are just like wings
    It's the wind that makes 'em sing
    Songs of life, songs of hope
    Songs to keep your dreams afloat
    I'm gonna build me a boat with these two hands
    A fair curve from a noble plan
    And let the chips fall where they will
    Cause I've got boats to build
    Shores, distant shores
    There...that's what I'm headed for
    I'll let the stars guide my way
    And sail into the light of day
    I'm gonna build me a boat with these two hands
    A fair curve from a noble plan
    And let the chips fall where they will
    I've got boats to build

    Wow! Just, Wow! I've seen you play at the Suwannee over the last few decades. Every time your music has touched my heart, but last week was so magical! Not only did you sing my twin baby boys to sleep a few times, but my 20 year son discovered you on his own and feels the magic too. Thanks Verlon❤
