[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
D G
Way back in my memory there's a scene that I
D A D
recall of a little run-down cabin in the woods.
D G
My daddy never promised that our blue moon
D A
would turn gold but he lay awake nights wishin'
D
that it would.
[Verse 2]
D G
When the world was on our radio, hard work was on
D
our minds.
A D
We lived our day-to-day in plain dirt fashion.
D G
With old overalls and cotton balls all strapped across
D A
your back, man, it's hard to make believe ain't nothing
D
wrong.
[Verse 3]
Bm G
But mama kept the Bible read, and daddy kept our family
D A
fed and somewhere in between I must have grown.
Bm G
Cause someday I was dreamin' that a song that I was singin'
D A
takes me down the road to where I want to go.
Bm A D
Now, I know, it's a long, hard road.
[Interlude]
D G D A D
[Verse 4]
D G D
Sometimes, I remember when I stay up late at night,
A D
when the sun-up came, we got up and went.
D G
In the shadows of a working day, our moonlight hours
D A D
spent, singin' songs along with grandma's radio.
[Verse 5]
D G
Now, I'm beatin' down an old blacktop road, sleepin'
D A D
in a sack, livin' in my memories all in vain.
D G
Cause those city lights ain't all that bright, compared
D A
to what it's like, to see lightning bugs go dancin' in
D
the rain.
[Verse 6]
Bm G
Mama played the guitar then, and daddy made the saw blade
D A
bend and raindrops played the tin roof like a drum.
Bm G
But I just kept on dreamin' that a song that I was singin'
D A
takes me down the road to where my name is known.
Bm A D
Now, I'm gone, and it's a long, hard road.
[Outro]
Bm A D
Yes, I know, it's a long, hard road..
G D A D G D A D
