Country music superstar Chris Stapleton’s “Parachute” was co-written with Jim Beavers and served as the third single from the Kentucky native’s debut solo album Traveller. Enjoy footage of Chris performing the tune on “Saturday Night Live” below!
Street lights along the highway
Throwing shadows in the dark
And the memories keep on turning
To the rhythm of a broken heart
You only need a roof when it’s raining
You only need a fire when it’s cold
You only need a drink when the whiskey
Is the only thing that you have left to hold
Sun comes up and goes back down
And falling feels like flying till you hit the ground
Say the word and I’ll be there for you
Baby, I will be your parachute
Parachute
There’s a song that I remember
I never learned to play
And a lifetime of forgotten words
I never got to say
You only need a roof when it’s raining
You only need a fire when it’s cold
You only need a drink when the whiskey
Is the only thing that you have left to hold
Sun comes up and goes back down
And falling feels like flying till you hit the ground
Say the word and I’ll be there for you
Baby, I will be your parachute
Parachute
If you think you’re going down
Just know I will be around
You only need a roof when it’s raining
You only need a fire when it’s cold
You only need a drink when the whiskey
Is the only thing that you have left to hold
Sun comes up and goes back down
And falling feels like flying till you hit the ground
Say the word and I’ll be there for you
Baby, I will be your
Baby I will be your parachute
Parachute
