[G] I’m sure it was magic not imagi[C]nation
Papa would sing the songs from back [G] when
We drove on the red clay way past the [C] station
To the [D] old carnival that piece of [G] heaven
[G] The smell of the air there was just like [C] todays
Of sweet summer heat off the [G] cotton
and the sounds of the bluebird out at [C] play
[D] Bring back to me those days in [G] the sun
[C] What’s at the end of your [G] old dirt road
[D] Its different for every[G]one
[C] What do you dream of when [G] time runs slow
[D] The magic of your first home [G] run?
[G] I remember the crack of the [C] popcorn
And the lines from our old secret [G] code
There was nothing outside the [C] border
of the [D] fair at the end of [G] the road
Chorus
Chorus break
[G] The times get tougher when your [C] older
And Papa can’t sing like that any[G]more
So take a drive somewhere off the [C] shoulder
And [D] make some memories like the ones from [G] before
