I Hope I Don't Live To See That Day chords by Tyler Farr

Tuning: Standard EBGDAE

Difficulty: Novice

Verse I:
   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 if they go away...
 Cadd9        D     G
I hope I don't live to see that day.

Verse II:
   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

Verse III:
     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.
      Cadd9         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.
