[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
[D]My granddaddy's daddy
settled down here on this land
A [A]mule forty acres and [G]two
willing hand[D]s
Worked this timber, turned to lumber,
built a house where I was raised
And he did it all be[A]cause he
was [G]taught the old [D]ways
By the time my daddy started passing
down these truths to me
[G]They were [A]time -tested,
tried -and -true fam[G]ily legacies
[D]Save the seeds out of the garden, let the
Bible lead your way
Lord, I am [A]thankful
He passed [G]down the old [D]ways
Well, [G]the hard times are hard,
[Asus4]but they make you [D]who you are
And the lessons that we've
learned along the [A]way
Are meant [D]to be used on,
[G]lest they be forgot[D]ten
[Bm]Life ain't always made of good old [A]days
And I'm a [Em]proud [D]member [G]of
[A]the old [D]way

[Interlude 1]

[Verse 2]
[D]Daddy crossed over in the spring of 95.

[Verse 3]
He [A]left it on my shoulders
to [G]keep it all [D]alive.
Oh, I feel like a stranger in this fast

[Interlude 2]
and modern age.
[D][A][G][D]

[Verse 4]
Well, [G]hard times are hard,
[A]but they mak[D]e you who you are
And the lessons that we've
learned along the [A]way
Are [D]meant to be used on,
[G]lest they be forgot[D]ten
[Bm]Life ain't always made of good old [A]days
And I'm [Em]a proud [D]member [G]of [A]the old [D]way
And I'm [Em]a proud mem[D]ber
[G]of [A]the old [D]way
