The Outlaws This Old Road chords
Start Jamming...
[G] It rains a lot around here, drives me crazy [Gm] sometimes.
Well I [D] was born here, I got roots all the way [Gm] down the line.
[C] I guess we can [G] do better since we moved away.
Well [D] there's things here money can buy, that's why I stay.
[G] Down this old road, it always takes me home.
Well I got credit at the general store and a party [D] line phone.
All of [G] my friends are like family.
Well this [D] old road, it's always been good [G] to me.
My glad folks were together about 65 years.
Across the ocean a long time ago to start a new [D] life here.
She passed away [G] on Sunday, she said there's nothing left of me.
Three [D] days later he joined her forever, passed away [Gm] to me.
We [G] took him down the old road and we took him home.
Past the general store and a corner [D] pay phone.
All [G] of his friends were lined up on the side.
While [D] the pauper played farewell we all said [G] goodbye.

[G]
[D] One time my daddy was stoned and struck up a hill and I was in it.
The chain broke I went over the edge.
Man there was a long minute, we hit a tree but [G] I was alright.
But boy my mama was mad.
It must have [D] been a week or two before we talked [G] about that.
Memories of this old road, it always takes me home.
Well I got credit at the general store and a party [D] line phone.
[G] All of my friends are like family.
Well this [D] old road, it's always been good [G] to me.
Well this [D] old road, it's always been good [G] to me.
