As recorded by Montgomery Gentry, on ?Carrying On?
[C]Old white washed barn door[G]s
[D]Rain rusted tin
[C]Straw packed shirt and blue[G] jeans
[D]Hangin' in the wind
[C]There's never time for these bon[G]es to me[D]nd
[C]Up before the sun dr[G]ies
[D]The frost on my fields
[C]I've got the diesel burn[G]in'
[D]Turnin' these four wheels
[C]Across this land I [G]been handed do[D]wn
[C]Feel my roots run [G]deep in this groun[D]d
Chorus:
[G]So stand me up tall[D] in this seat
[C]Lord help me guide this [G]plow beneath my f[D]eet
[G]And turn this earth ov[D]er one more time
[C]Some say this wa[G]y of life is don[D]e
[C]But not for my father's so[G]n
[C]Three Generation[G]s
[D]Before I ever came
[C]Cut back these timber[G]s
[D]And bet their lives on grain
[C]And I want to see just o[G]nce before I die[D]
[C]Us doin' more than just b[G]arely getting b[D]y
Chorus
Solo CGDCGD
[C]Now and then I walk m[G]y fence
[D]Down by the old country road
[C]And watch the cars go rushi[G]n' by
[D]And disappear like ghosts
[C]Out where the sky me[G]ets the amber wa[D]ves
[C]Yeah I'm a rock in th[G]is land God ma[D]de
Chorus
CGD Fade Out
