D                           G                D
I remember my Dad sayin' "Get up this morning, son
                                                  A
Get your brother too, we've got to get some work done.
     D                            G                D
We'd dread the next 10 hours then to the fields we go
    G                 D                     A                D
I'd cuss the mules as Dad was sayin', "son, stay between the rows.


[Chorus]
           G         D        A          Bm
Back when times were good and times were bad
G              D                        A
Daylight would fade and we'd always be glad
G                   A           D                  G
To get back to our pillows and dream of where we'd go
G               D/F     Em
to find a better way, a little brighter day
G                                     A
Just to find the best times we'd ever had
             Asus2              D
were out with Dad between the rows.



[Verse]
    D                             G               D
My Dad worked the farm for sixty years before he died
                                               A
And even before that day, I'd look at him and cry
         D                               G              D
Cause I knew he never had that much and probably never would
    G            D               A             D
But now I see he had more than a man now ever could


[Chorus]
           G          D        A          Bm
Back when times were good and times were bad
G              D                        A
Daylight would fade and we'd always be glad
G                   A           D                  G
To get back to our pillows and dream of where we'd go
G               D/F     Em
to find a better way, a little brighter day
G                                     A
Just to find the best times we'd ever had
             Asus2              D
were out with Dad between the rows.
