Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[D]It [Bm]was o[A]ne[D] lane
in and one lane out
[Bm]A country road they built ar[A]ound
A [G]general store and last stop
for gas[A]oline[D][Asus4]

[Verse 2]
A paved [G]carpet where we rode
[D]our bikes
How the mail [Bm]came in and
how [A]our town survived
A [G]hundred miles from the
city's cold [A]concrete
[D]

[Verse 3]
[Bm]Yeah,'round here old
rural route number [A]three
Is [Bm]more than just a crossing
for [A]tumbleweeds

[Verse 4]
She's [G]taken sons to foreign
[A]shores
Brought some [Bm]back home
to their [A]front porch
She' [D]how we come togeth
[A]er when the church bell [D]rings
A [G]quarter inch on a fold [A]out map
Where we [Bm]live, love, [A]cry and laugh
I hope [D]my kids [A]can grow up just like [G]me[A]
[G]On a country road like rur
[A]al route number three

[Verse 5]
[D]My [Bm]first[A] memory [G]is
[D]wrapped around
Mama [Bm]walkin' me to my first [A]bus route
She [G]thought I didn't [A]notice but saw her cry

[Verse 6]
[D]A p[A]lac[G]e we parked and fogged wind[D]ows
A [Bm]way to college and Christ
[A]mas back home
The [G]shoulder I broke down [A]on
when a good friend [D]died

[Verse 7]
She's [G]taken sons to for
[A]eign shores
Brought some [Bm]back home
to their [A]front porch
She' [D]how we come togeth
[A]er when the church bell [D]rings
A [G]quarter inch [A]on a fold out map
Where we [Bm]live, love, [A]cry and laugh
I hope [D]my kids [A]can grow up just like [G]me[A]
[G]On a country road like rural [A]route
number three
[G][D][Bm][A][G][D]

[Verse 8]
[Bm][A]
The [D]sun is hot, our flag it waves
We've [Bm]dreamed for years
about [A]this day
When [G]we'd take those five
[A]yellow ribbons [D]down[A]

[Verse 9]
[G]Riding the [D]blacktops hot
heatwaves
[Bm]Black boots marchin' through [A]ticker tape
A [G]boy [A]from overseas
came back [D]to town
Today [Bm]old highway three is hallowed ground
