Verse
G C
My father takes us driving down a Maryland county road
G D
Till we stop off at a restaurant where the lemonade is cold
G
The waitress calls us sweetheart
C
She's never seen our faces
G D
And I can't figure out how my father finds these places
[Chorus]
Em C
And he knows how the Civil War went down
Em D
And railroads used to stop for small towns
Em C
And the stores closed when the highway passed them by
G C
These towns sputtered but they did not die
C
[Verse]
G
We sit there at the table
C
As he spins his tales
G
And in the window as we're leaving
D
We see a sign for a town fair
G
There's a pie contest and horses
C
And quilts stitched by hand
G D C G
We sit all day and listen to the bluegrass bands
[Chorus]
Em
The farms roll on forever
C
And we find a roadside stand
Em
The farmer's name is Jason
D
And he once worked all this land
Em C
We buy backyard tomatoes and strawberry jam
G D C
And his blue eyes still sparkle when he shakes my small hand
G D C x2
[Verse]
G
Strangers wave from lawn chairs
C
As we wind our way back home
G
Crickets keep time in their corn field
D
As we drive along
G C
Till we cross the river over to my hometown street
G D C
We'll be back again when we cannot stand the heat
[Outro]
Em C
To fields where the Civil War went down
Em D
And railroads used to stop for small towns
Em C
And stores closed when the highway passed them by
G D C
Towns that sputtered but they did not die
C G
When my father takes us driving down a Maryland County road
