Old Dirt Roads - Owen Riegling
[Intro]
(Em) (G) (D) [x2]
[Verse 1]
Em G D
I grew up wild and I grew up true, a town most folks just drive through
Em G D
We'd sit out by the dam on a night when the air was warm.
Em G
Momma was an angel Daddy was a saint,
D
When the lights cut off I could sneak out late,
Em G D
To a spot on the west side baby nobody knew
|[Pre-Chorus]
| Em G D
|Come and find me down where the treeline ends
|and the cattails grow,
| Em G D
|We can be free-living our dreams out singing to the radio.
|[Chorus]
| Em G
|I was raised on a little patch of heaven
| D
|Wheat fields and old dirt roads.
| Em G
|Where the tin roof sings, the whole damn thing
|D
| Shakes when the cold wind blows.
| Em G
|Well it ain't all sunshine and rainbows
| D
|Hard times we all know.
| Em G
|But I'd go back in a minute to the land of the wicked
| D
|Wheat fields and old dirt roads.
[Instrumental]
Em G D
La da da, na nana naaa, la da, da dadada dada
Em G D
La da dada na na na, la da da dadada dada
[Verse 2]
Em G
Spent some time in a corner bar,
D
Playing for keeps with his old guitar
Em G D
and it was worth every minute when I heard those people sing.
Em G
It's a long road home but now I see,
D
what them old times meant to me.
Em G
So when I get back crack a bottle of Jack
D
You know where I'll be.
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Instrumental]
Em G D
La da da, na nana naaa, la da, da dadada dada
Em G D
La da dada na na na, la da da dadada dada

[Chorus]
[Outro]
Em G
Yeah I'll go back in a minute to the land of the wicked
D
Wheat fields and old dirt roads.
Em G D
La da da, na nana naaa, la da, da dadada dada
Em G D
La da dada na na na, la da da dadada dada
Em G D
La da da, na nana naaa, la da, da dadada dada
Em G D
La da dada na na na, wheat fields and old dirt roads
