D
Helping the kids out of their coats
    D                               G     D
But wait the babies haven't been born, ohhh
  D
Unpacking the bags and setting up
    D                          G       D
And planting lilacs and buttercups, ohhh

    Em
But in the meantime I've got it hard
Em                      A         D
Second floor living without a yard
   Em
It may be years until the day
   Em                    A        D
My dreams will match up with my pay


[Chorus]

Em  A   G
O - o - old dirt road (mushaboom, mushaboom)
Em   A  G
Knee-ee-ee deep snow (mushaboom, mushaboom)
Em           A    G
Watching the fire as we grow (mushaboom, mushaboom)
Em    A    D
Ooooooooooooooold

[Verse 2]

D
I got a man to stick it out
    D                           G      D
And make a home from a rented house, ohhhh
          D
And we'll collect the moments one by one
  D                              G      D
I guess that's how the future's done, ohhhh

Em
How many acres, how much light
Em                      A          D
Tucked in the woods and out of sight
Em
Talk to the neighbours and tip my cap
     Em                 A        D
On a little road barely on the map


[Chorus]

Em  A   G
O - o - old dirt road (mushaboom, mushaboom)
Em   A  G
Knee-ee-ee deep snow (mushaboom, mushaboom)
Em           A    G
Watching the fire as we grow (mushaboom, mushaboom)
Em    A    D
Ooooooooooooooold (mushaboom, mushaboom)

Em  A   G
O - o - old dirt road
Em   A   G
Ra - a - ambling rose (mushaboom, mushaboom)
Em           A    G
Watching the fire as we grow (mushaboom, mushaboom)
Em   A   G      A   G  A  D
We - e - ell, I'm sooooooooooold
