Em                                   D
Takin' it easy with a friend of mine
Em                                                        D
Down at the diamond talkin' 'bout them shifty waves of time
G                                                 D
He said to me "You can’t get free, unless you make your move."
                Bm          A          D
And I said "Ain't that the truth."

So I cut a million skylines, cars and borderlines, just tryin' to find the

It was somewhere around Sante Fe
                                           D
When some late night preacher told me son
                    G                                            D
Listen to me, the devil can't get you cause he ain't got proof
                 Bm        A         D
And I said "Ain't that the truth."

[Chorus]
G                    D                 A
So take me down that open road, light up my fire high,
G                    D                 A
Sing me that song from yesteryear
Bm         A
When we were all right
G                           D
Cutting this deep in the history

[Verse]
Em                                               D
Shoulder to shoulder we’ll stand over the grave
Em                                         D
Watchin' the hatchet lowering on down
G                                              D
I said, man years ago, we should have called this truce
              Bm             A          D
You said "Ain't that the truth."

[Chorus]
G                    D                 A
So take me down that open road, light up my fire high,
G                    D                 A
Sing me that song from yesteryear
Bm                A
When we were all right
G                    D                 A
So take me down that open road, light up my fire high,
G                    D                 A
Sing me that song from yesteryear
Bm                A
When we were all right
G                           D
Cutting this deep in the history
Bm            A       D
Ain’t that the truth
Bm            A       D
Ain’t that the truth
Bm            A       D
Ain’t that the truth
Bm            A       D
Ain’t that the truth
