The Dirt Road
By:  Sawyer Brown

Key of G
Intro:  G C Em D G C Em D

      Em    C		  G
Daddy worked hard for his dollars
		   Em    C		D
He said some folks don't, but that's okay
		Em   C		  G
Well they won't know which road to follow
		Em     D		G
Because an easy street might lead you astray


Chorus:
		C		    G
I'll take the dirt road, it's all I know
	D						G
I been walkin' it for years, it's going where I need to go
D	 C			  G
It ain't easy, it ain't supposed to be
F       Em	C	 F	    Em	     C
So I'll take my time, and life won't pass me by
	F         Em	   C   D	G
'Cause it's right there to find on the dirt road

C  Em  D  G  C  Em  D

	Em   C		     G
I have lived life in the fast lane
		      Em  C		D
You gotta watch your back and look both ways
		   Em        C		    G
When it's said and done, the time we have is borrowed
		     Em		 D		  G
You better make real sure you're headed the right way.
