Аккорды Merle Haggard - Roots of my Raising

 G                                     C              G  
I left the four lane highway took a blacktop seven miles 
                                  A7              D7  
Down by the old country school I went to as a child 
 G                                      C                  G  
Two miles down a gravel road I could see the proud old home 
                                    D7               G  
 A  tribute to a way of life that's almost come and gone 
 
 C                            G  
The roots of my raising run deep 
                     A7              D7  
I come back for the strength that I need 
 C                          G              D7  
And hope comes no matter how far down I sink 
 C                  D7        G  
The roots of my raising run deep 
  
Spoken verse: 
                                    C                    G  
I pulled into the driveway Lord it sure was good to be there 
And I could see through the open door that Dad was  
 A7                       D7  
Asleep in his favorite chair 
 G                                          C    G  
In his hand was a picture of Mom and I remembered 
how close they were
So I just turned away I didn't want to wake him  
 D7                        G  
And spoil his dreams of her 
  
 G                                          C                G  
А Christian Mom who had the strength for life the way she did 
                                         A7                D7  
Then to pull that apron off and do the Charleston for us kids 
 G                     C                        G  
Dad a quiet man who gentle voice was seldom heard 
                                     D7            G  
Who could borrow money at the bank simply on his word
