G Em G Em G Em G Em A tin roof on an A-framed house G Em A barren field with a horse and cow G Em A wide one room church G Em where people say their vows G Em Naked trees and evergreens G Em A hitchhiker walks in holey jeans G Em A big yellow school bus G Em is loaded down with dreams. Bm C I drove for miles, this is what I've seen G Yeah, I've gone to all these places, D like a door without a screen Am C I've been to Nashville, through Bowling Green G Yeah, there's nothing like the lines that run, D from here to one-fourteen Em D C If the road was a song, this is what it'd say Em D C when you drive the Mountain Parkway Em D G Yeah, when you drive the Mountain Parkway. G Em The wooden crosses and exit signs G Em The road contruction's faded lines G Em A place where all of these flat lands G Em turn to mountain skies G Em An old barn where tobacco hangs G Em Farms where folks were born and stayed G Em And every house that I pass by G Em has a worn flag that's raised. Bm C I drove for miles, this is what I've seen G Yeah, I've gone to all these places, D like a door without a screen Am C I've been to Nashville, through Bowling Green G Yeah, there's nothing like the lines that run, D from here to one-fourteen Em D C If the road was a song, this is what it'd say Em D C when you drive the Mountain Parkway Em D G Yeah, when you drive the Mountain Parkway. G Em G Em C Yeah, I know it like the back of my hand G Yeah, we're close just like a kin D I could drive it with my eyes closed, C G but I wouldn't want to miss G At mile marker twenty-two, Em C where the hillsides show their face, C D G right there, on the mountain parkway. Bm C I drove for miles, this is what I've seen G Yeah, I've gone to all these places, D like a door without a screen Am C I've been to Nashville, through Bowling Green G Yeah, there's nothing like the lines that run, D from here to one-fourteen Em D C If the road was a song, this is what it'd say Em D C when you drive the Mountain Parkway Em D G Yeah, when you drive the Mountain Parkway.
