The Whittler Written and recorded by Tom T. Hall
G D7 G At an old country store on the outskirts of town C D7 He sat on the porch with his feet on the ground G C G With a stick of red cedar and a sharp Barlow knife D7 G He whittled and talked of a whittler's life
D7 G He said when you whittle you don't make a thing C D7 A whittle can't dance and a whittle can't sing G C G A whittle don't hurt and a whittle don't help D7 G A whittle ain't nothin' but whittlin' itself
C G One whittle's a whit and two whits a whittle D7 G It's the same on both ends as it is in the middle C G The same to the wood as it is to the knife D7 G A whittle's a riddle it's a little like life
D7 G Well a whittle don't care about heaven or hell C D7 Don't care how it looks and don't care how it smells G C G It's a thing you can't do if you think it's a thing D7 G It's the end of a circle and the start of a ring
D7 G Well he sits there and whittles and the shavins' pile up C D7 Back to the earth and then back to the dust G C G He said what have I done if I've whittled all day D7 G Time would have whittled itself anyway
Repeat #3
D7 G He said here watch me whittle and he whittled a whit C D7 He reared back and laughed and leaned over and spit G C G He said let me say one more thing fore you go D7 G I don't even know what it is I don't know
Repeat #3
