Текст песни с аккордами

    	    	Вступление

[Intro]
A    G    D  (x4)
F   C   G   D (x2)
A
C  C/B  C/A  C/F   G


[Chorus]
C            C/B                      C/A        G             C
We've come a long, long way since the days of my grandfather's time
C           C/B      C/A       D          G
And I can't say it's all been forward
Am                    G          F    G      C     C/B
I don't know what I'd say to any grandson of mine
   Am     G         F        Em          Am
If he was tryin' to make his own way star-ward


[Verse 1]
F              G
And I hate to see him go
C            G
But I'd be glad to know
F                Em           Am
Part of me would live to see tomorrow
F               G
We thought our days were
Am          G
Bought and paid for
F                 Em            Am
Came to find that time was only borrowed


[Verse 2]
C             C/B              C/A       G       C
A man and his horse used to be worth two bucks a day
C           C/B                 C/A                 D       G
Now that won't even pay for the hay, and that's the horse's meal
Am            G
I played in a band
F G                C
I lived in an old Chevrolet van
Am
Back in the days of the automobile


[Verse 3]
F               G
We lived on the land
C                   G
And tried to make a stand
F               Em                     Am
Just hoped that man would learn to get by
F                   G
And we poisoned the earth
C                            G
And took her for all she was worth
F                   Em                 Am
But it was here I's born and here I'll die


[Verse 4]
F                  G
And you can't get away
C                         G
From that final Judgement Day
F             Em      Am
No matter how far we fly


[Chorus 2]
C            C/B                      C/A        G             C
We've flown a long, long way since the days of my grandfather's time
C           C/B      C/A       D          G
And I can't say it's all been forward
Am                    G          F    G      C     C/B
I don't know what I'd say to any grandson of mine
Am     G         F        Em          Am
If he was tryin' to make his own way star-ward


[Outro]
C Am   x3
