Verse 1

Am                       F                           C                 G
Day, a long while ago, I walked down a dirt road and stood in the time great
      Am                             F                                   C
Where stone walls lined the road and black and white cattle roam and the fields
                  G
of corn growed up straight

Chorus

      F                        C                   G                         Am
These times have changed since my young life and I never thought I'd see the day
        F                                 C
There's houses in the corn field around a fallen down barn
        G                 Am         F        G        Am
And the old dirt road was paved. The old dirt road was paved.

Verse 2

Am                      F                           C             G
Day, a long while ago I rocked on a front porch and sipped a cool lemonade
     Am                   F                                    C
When neighbors passed by, smiled and stopped to talk about the corn or the weather or the
G
day

Chorus

      F                        C                   G                         Am
These times have changed since my young life and I never thought I'd see the day
        F                                 C
There's houses in the corn field around a fallen down barn
        G                 Am         F        G        Am
And the old dirt road was paved. The old dirt road was paved.

Day, a short while ago, I stopped at a dirt road and stood in a time of change
  Am                      F                              C                          G
I sat by a stone wall and stared at a front porch fallen down and withered from the rain

Chorus

      F                        C                   G                         Am
These times have changed since my young life and I never thought I'd see the day
        F                                 C
There's houses in the corn field around a fallen down barn
        G                 Am         F        G        Am
And the old dirt road was paved. The old dirt road was paved.
