Written In Stone
Recorded by Randy Travis
Written by Don Schlitz and Mac McAnally

C
I'm gonna take you down to the riverside

Where the water runs slow and wide
          F
There's a big ole rock out in the middle

And I took my hammer and chisel
    C
And worked all night so you could see

Just how much you mean to me
  F
I carved your name right next to mine

And it'll be there till the end of time
    G7           Dm                 G7
And my love will last at least that long

C               F
It's written in stone how I feel for you
                C
It's written in stone what I want to do
         F             A#7              C
Spend my life and life hereafter loving you
                  F
And darling if we live to be a hundred
               C                 Dm
Or if we don't make it half that long
                                   A#7
I want you to know what I feel for you
              C
Is written in stone


There's a place on the edge of town

When I was a kid I found
    F
Two names on a stone together

Lying side by side forever
    C
And it was then and there I knew
 
If I ever thought our love was true
F
I'd surely want to write it down
                 
On something that would be around
     G7             Dm                  G7
When all the spoken words have come and gone

Repeat #3

    G7        Dm                G7
And when this life has come and gone
              
Our love will still be

Repeat #3
 
              Dm                   A#7
I want you to know what I feel for you
              C
Is written in stone
A#7        C          A#7        C
Written in stone it's written in stone
