C G
There was a time
C G
A simpler time
D C-D-G
When a man could be sure of where he stood

I used to work at the yard
C G
Working honest and hard
D C-D-G
The hours were long, but the pay was good
C G
I had a family and friends
C G
So many friends
D C-D-G
We'd drive to the lake on holidays
C G
Back then it wasn't so dear
C G
For a sandwich or beer
D C
At night I still dream I can see their faces
CHORUS:
G C
Certain things that you depend upon
G C
They were places that you'd known
G
And the faces of America
D Em
Oh oh, where do they go
G C G C G
Where did they go
C G
I was born on a farm
C G
A mid-western farm
D C-D-G
I rode on the tractor with my dad
C G
And though we never had much
C G
It was always enough
D C-D-G
And we made the best with what we had
C G
But then came four years of drought
C G
And the bottom dropped out
D C-D-G
My father was broken, like the rest
C G
And I can still see his hands
C G
Signing over his lands
D C
And the bankers grow fat on the flesh of the dispossessed
CHORUS:
G C
Certain things that you depend upon
G C
There are places I can go
G
I sift the ashes of America
D Em
For someplace I used to know (someplace I used to know)
D C
Someplace I used to know (someplace I used to know)
G
Someplace I used to know

There was a time
C G
A simpler time
D C-D-G
When a man could be sure of where he stood
C G
I used to work at the yard
C G
Working honest and hard
D C
The hours were long, but the pay was oh, so good
CHORUS:
G C
Certain things that you depend upon
G C
I used to think were guaranteed
G
Like the right of every man to work
Em C
And feed his family, and feed his family
G C
And the faces of America
G C
Seem so distant and estranged
G
Have their eyes become too blind to see
D Em
How much their hearts have changed (how much their hearts have changed)
C
How much their hearts have changed (how much their hearts have changed)
G
How much their hearts have changed
