Long Hard Road chords by Nitty Gritty Dirt Band


Nitty Gritty Dirt Band Chords

key of d 


D                              G           D
way back in my memory theres a seen that i recall
     A                            D
of a little run-down cabin in the woods
                                       G                    D
where my daddy never promised that our blue moon would turn gold
       A                               D
but he lay awake nights wishin that it would
                                     G               D
when the world was on our radio hard work was on our minds
   A                             D 
we lived our day to day in plain dirt fashion
                                       G                    D 
with ole overalls and cotton balls all strapped across your back
        A                                D
man its hard to make believe aint nothin wrong

CHORUS:
    Bm                            G        
But momma kept the bible read and daddy kept our family fed
    D                                A
And somewhere in between i must have grown 
      Bm                           G       
cause someday i was dreamin that a song that i was singin
         D                              A
takes me down the road to where i wanna go
      G    A               D 
now i know, its along hard road

*(fiddle instrumantal 4 counts)*

VERSE 2:
D                           G               D
sometimes i remember when i stay up late at night
         A                         D
when the sun-up came we got up and went
                                    G                D
in the shadows of a working day our moon-light hours spent
       A                             D
singin songs along with grandmas radio
                                          G            D
now ive beaten down an old black-top road sleepin in a sack
A                            D
living in my memories all in vain
                                             G                    D
cause those city lights aint all that bright compared to what its like
       A                              D
to see lightnin bugs go dancin in the rain


CHORUS 2:
Bm                   
momma played the guitar then
    G
and daddy made the saw-blade bend
    D                                     A
and rain drops played the tin roof like a drum
    Bm                            G         
but i just kept on dreamin that a song that i was singin
         D                                 A
takes me down the road to where my name is known
        G    A                   D 
now ive gone, and its along hard road
      Bm   A                D
yes i know, its a long hard road
