[C] We gotta tune some of this shit up, man.
Unbelievable.
[F] [C]
[Fm] I swear you can taste [C] the chicken and tomatoes
[F] And the noodles and the marrow [C] bone
[F] But it really was nothing [C] but some water and potatoes
And a [F] wonderful, [C] wonderful soup [G] stone
[C]
[G] [C] Hanging from the string in my mama's kitchen
Back [G] in the hard [C] time days
It was a little old stone about [F] the [C] size of an apple
[D] It was smooth and [G] warm and brave
[C] There wasn't much food in [F] my mama's [C] kitchen
So whenever [G] baby's got a chance
[F] Mama'd boil up some water, [C] put it in the stone and say
[D] Let's have some stew [G] tonight
[F] And I swear you can taste [C] the chicken and tomatoes
And [F] the noodles and [Am] the marrow [C] bone
[F] But it really [C] was nothing but some water [Dm] and [C] potatoes
And a wonderful, [F] wonderful [C] soup [G] stone
[C] You've been in the family [F] for a whole lot of [C] years
So we knew [G] it was a [C] magical thing
And I remember mama, as [F] she stood it [C] in the water
[D] And we could [G] all [D] hear [G] her say
[C] It's a magical stone, and as long as we got it
You'll never feel [G] hungry [C] tonight
[F] Just add a little love [C] to the wonderful soup stone
And [D] everything will be [G] alright
[F] And I [C] swear you can taste the chicken and tomatoes
And the noodles and the marrow bone
[F] But it really was nothing [C] but some water and potatoes
[G] And a wonderful, [Dm]
wonderful [C] soup stone
So we carried this stone through the darkening days
Till finally [G] the [C] sunshine came
Stone started [F] into gathering [C] dust
But it [D] hung there just [G] the same
[C] And ever since then, the [F] [C] food's been plenty
But there are now men I find
[F] And mama in the kitchen and the [C] wonderful soup [D] stone
[G] Drifts across my mind
And [F] I can [C]
taste the chicken and the tomatoes
And the noodles and the marrow bone
[F] But it really [C] was nothing but some water and potatoes
[G] And [C] a wonderful, wonderful soup stone
[F] And a wonderful, [C] wonderful soup stone
