Intro Em  Bm7  Em  Bm7  Em 

Verse 1:
Em            Bm7                        Em 
So many people are movin' to the country 
Em                       B7                 Em 
See how they stumble the weary and the worn 
Em                              B7 
Lookin' for good laughs with strong hearts and soft hands 
   D                 A              Em 
It looks like better days are bein' born now 
            Bm7   Em 
Oh yes it does 

Verse 2:
Em                  Bm7                    Em 
They met the old man livin' on the highway 
Em                         B7                   Em 
He raised up his finger as they were passin' by 
Em                B7 
"Where you goin' " He said, "Where you been" 
    D                  A                Em 
And that made all the children start to cry 
            Bm7   Em 
Oh yes it did

Verse 3:
Em              Bm7                Em 
Some were cryin', some were prayin' 
Em                       B7             Em 
Some were throwin' their treasures away 
Em                                  B7 
Straighten out your road, you better lighten up your load 
       D                 A           Em 
'Cause you can't take it with you anyway 
Em 
Oh no you can't

Verse 4:
Em                 Bm7                 Em 
There is a mountain, there is a valley 
Em                         B7              Em 
There is a river where the chosen people go 
Em             B7 
Go to see Moses, go to see Jesus 
    D       A                  Em 
And anybody hears who wants to show 
Em         Bm7 
It's alright 
 
Verse 5:
Em            Bm7                        Em 
So many people are movin' to the country 
Em                       B7                 Em 
See how they stumble the weary and the worn 
Em                              B7 
Lookin' for good laughs with strong hearts and soft hands 
         D                 A              Em 
Woah, it looks like better days are bein' born 
       D                 A              Em 
Oh, it looks like better days are bein' born now 
         D                 A              Em 
Yeah, it looks like better days are bein' born 
Em              Bm7  Em  Bm7 
Oh yes they are 
Bm7              Em  Bm7   D A Em  Em Bm7 
Oh it's all right  fade
