Capo 1st fret
Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
Helping the kids out of their coats
But wait the babies haven't been born (ohh oh ooo-oo)
Unpacking the bags and setting up
And planting lilacs and buttercups (ohh oh ooo-oo)
But in the meantime I've got it hard
Second floor living without a yard
It may be years until the day
My dreams will match up with my pay
Ooo-ooo-oold dirt road
Hi-igh Knee deep snow
Watching the fire as we grow old
Ohh-ohhh-ooo-ooo
I got a man to stick it out
And make a home from a rented house (ohh oh ooo-oo)
And we'll collect the moments one by one
I guess that's how the future's done (ohh oh ooo-oo)
How many acres how much light
Tucked in the woods and out of sight
I Wave to the neighbours and tip my cap
On a little road barely on the map
Ooo-ooo-oold dirt road
Hi-igh Knee deep snow
Watching the fire as we grow old
Ahh-ahh-ooo-oww
Ooo-ooo-oold
