Chords

[Verse 1]
              G
This ain't no song about the good old days

       C   D           G
Simpler times or easy ways
Or how I long for an old dirt road
        C   D               G
Greener grass or a lighter load
[Chorus]
      G                         C
I was glad to see the blacktop

                            G
When they laid it down in '65
Yeah I was glad to see the blacktop
C       D          G
No more dust in my eyes
[Verse 2]
           G
Rain would fall and the mud would rise

           C  D                G
Through my toes in the summer time
August heat would dry that clay
          C   D               G
Dust went flying like a dandelion
[Chorus]
      G                         C
I was glad to see the blacktop

                            G
When they laid it down in '65
Yeah I was glad to see the blacktop
C       D          G
No more dust in my eyes
[Verse 3]
            G
Stubbed my toes on rocks and stones

            C   D          G
Slipped and fell in old potholes
Watched my mama shake that line
           C          D                      G
Dust them clothes off hanging in the hot sunshine
[Chorus]
      G                         C
I was glad to see the blacktop

                            G
When they laid it down in '65
Yeah I was glad to see the blacktop
C       D          G
No more dust in my eyes
