I Told The Brook Song Lyrics and Chords by Marty Robbins

I Told The Brook

Written and Recorded by Marty Robbins

I told the

brook that runs

down through the

valley

secret my

best friend never

knew

The brook told the

trees and the

trees told the

breeze

That I was in love with

you

The

trees told the

flowers hiding

there by the

hilltop

The

clouds told the

moon that shone

above

angry yet blue when

they found out that

you

And your

heart

had another

love

The

brook became

angry and

changed to a

river

Rushing so

madly

along

The

soft summer

breeze that

played tag with the

trees

came so

wild and so

strong

The bashful white

flowers hiding

there by the

hilltop

Grew dark when the

rain came pouring

down

Their

hearts couldn't hide all the

tears that were

cried

And had

carpeted

on the

ground

The storm passed on

over there's

sunshine

again

The chains that

held me are now

gone

The trees wave

hello as I

stand here

below

And the

brook sings the sweetest

song

The

bashful white

flowers are

again by the

hilltop

The sun and the

moon are still my

friends

promise there'll be no

more heartaches for

Till

I fall in

love

again

Who is Marty Robbins?
- Martin David Robinson (September 26, 1925 - December 8, 1982), known professionally as Marty Robbins, was an American singer, songwriter, actor, multi-instrumentalist, and NASCAR racing driver. Robbins was one of the most popular and successful country and western singers for most of his nearly four-decade career, which spanned from the late 1940s to the early 1980s.
Born in Glendale, Arizona, Robbins taught himself guitar while serving in the United States Navy during World War II, and subsequently drew fame performing in clubs in and around his hometown. In 1956, he released his first No. 1 country song, "Singing the Blues" and one year later, released two more No. 1 hits, "A White Sport Coat" and "The Story of My Life". In 1959, Robbins released his signature song, "El Paso", for which he won the Grammy Award for Best Country & Western Recording. The song began Robbins' association with western balladry, a style which would become a staple of his career. Later releases that drew critical acclaim include "Don't Worry", "Big Iron" and "Honkytonk Man", the last for which the 1982 Clint Eastwood film is named, and in which Robbins made his final appearance before death.
Over the course of his career, Robbins recorded more than 500 songs and 60 albums, and won two Grammy Awards, was elected to the Country Music Hall of Fame and Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame, and was named the 1960s Artist of the Decade by the Academy of Country Music. Robbins was a commercial success in both the country and pop genres, and his songs were covered by many other famous artists, including Johnny Cash, the Grateful Dead and Elvis Presley. His music continues to have an influence in pop culture today, having recently appeared in several contemporary pop culture features, including the video game Fallout: New Vegas, and the series finale of AMC's Breaking Bad.
