It Will Never Be The Same

D A G D A G D My first taste of dust came when I was three G Driving on the tractor on daddy's knee D A he told me "Son, someday you'll take this place from me" D "Well you'll raise these fields and do the best you can, G Em to plan your life, and be an honest man, D A D And do your best, to make your old man proud" D Well things would change, we couldn't see eye to eye, G D So I packed my things, and said goodbye to my home A D Where I was born and raised Bm G D And the devil, he took me far away Bm G D I lost my path, and went astray Bm G D And in my heart, I knew I'd come back again Bm G A After all the wounds had healed Bm G A And in my mind I still see those fields Bm G A An old dirt road that bears no name G D I know it will never be the same D News came mama was laid to rest G And daddy was in pain with every breath D A The bank forclosed, and took most of the land D But he kept that house and the old blue barn G Em Enough to say that he still farmed D A D But for many years his health was failing fast D After thirteen years, I headed home G I didn't recognize what i'd done D A D And I cried the day I watched him breath his last Bm G D The devil, he took me far away Bm G D I lost my path, and went astray Bm G D And in my heart, I knew I'd come back again Bm G A After all the wounds had healed Bm G A And in my mind I still see those fields Bm G A An old dirt road that bears no name G D I know it will never be the same A G D G A D His first taste of dust came when he was three G Driving on the tractor up on my knee D A I told him "Son, someday you'll take this place from me" D "Well you'll raise these fields and do the best you can, G Em to plan your life, and be an honest man, D A D And do your best, to make your old man proud"
