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


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  


Em      A      G 
Old dirt road  
Em      A      G 
Knee deep snow  
Em      A      G 
Watching the fire as we grow 
Em      A      G 
Old 


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


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


Em      A      G 
Old dirt road 
Em      A      G  
Knee deep snow 
Em      A      G  
Watching the fire as we grow 
Em      A      G 
Old  


Em      A      G 
Old dirt road  
Em      A      G 
Rambling rose 
Em      A      G  
Watching the fire as we grow 
Em      A      G 
well I'm sold
