I Hope I Dont Live To See That Day

     G              D           Em7
When marriages and trucks don't last,
     Cadd9              D           G
and John Deere's just a thing of the past
     G                 D       Em7
When steel guitars and fiddles fade...
  Cadd9                 D       G
I hope I don't live to see that day.
     G                     D      Em7
When boy's stop shakin' old mens hands,
      Cadd9         D       G
don't open doors or say yes ma'am.
G                         D      Em7
When no one stands as the anthem plays...
  Cadd9                 D       G
I hope I don't live to see that day.

[Chorus]

        Cadd9        G        Cadd9         G
So just call me old school, I know it ain't cool.
           Cadd9            G             D
But there's some of us that still believe in that golden rule.
            Cadd9                G            Em7
There's some things you shouldn't change, and
           Em7
if they go away...
  Cadd9                D         G
I hope I don't live to see that day.

[Verse 2]

      G                  D             Em7
When tree's are gone and fields ain't green,
   Cadd9                 D      G
A hard day's work ain't worth a thing.
      G                 D      Em7
When no one bows their head to pray...
   Cadd9               D        G
I hope I don't live to see that day.

[Chorus]

         Cadd9        G        Cadd9         G
So just call me old school, I know it ain't cool.
           Cadd9            G             D
But there's some of us that still believe in that golden rule.
            Cadd9                G            Em7
There's some things you shouldn't change, and
           Em7
if they go away...
  Cadd9                D         G
I hope I don't live to see that day.


[Verse 3]

         G                      D       Em7
When the last small town boards up its doors,
        Cadd9                D      G
and the old men don't drink beer no more.
            G                    D           Em7
When there's no more heart in the home of the brave...
   Cadd9                D        G
I hope I don't live to see that day,
   Cadd9                D            G
I hope I don't live to see that day.
