[Verse 1]
GThis ain't no song about the good old days
C D GSimpler times or easy ways
 
Or how I long for an old dirt road
C D GGreener grass or a lighter load
 
 
[Chorus]
G CI was glad to see the blacktop
GWhen they laid it down in '65
 
Yeah I was glad to see the blacktop
C D GNo more dust in my eyes
 
 
[Verse 2]
GRain would fall and the mud would rise
C D GThrough my toes in the summer time
 
August heat would dry that clay
C D GDust went flying like a dandelion
 
 
[Chorus]
G CI was glad to see the blacktop
GWhen they laid it down in '65
 
Yeah I was glad to see the blacktop
C D GNo more dust in my eyes
 
 
[Verse 3]
GStubbed my toes on rocks and stones
C D GSlipped and fell in old potholes
 
Watched my mama shake that line
C D GDust them clothes off hanging in the hot sunshine
 
 
[Chorus]
G CI was glad to see the blacktop
GWhen they laid it down in '65
 
Yeah I was glad to see the blacktop
C D GNo more dust in my eyes
