[Intro]
G  Em  G  Em  G  Em
 
 
[Verse]
G                         Em
A tin roof on an A-framed house
G                               Em
A barren field with a horse and cow
G               Em
A wide one room church
                       G      Em
where people say their vows
G                   Em
Naked trees and evergreens
G                           Em
A hitchhiker walks in holey jeans
G                   Em
A big yellow school bus
                    G       Em
is loaded down with dreams.
 
 
[Chorus]
            C                     Em
I drove for miles, this is what I've seen
           G
Yeah, I've gone to all these places,
       D
like a door without a screen
             Em                 C
I've been to Nashville, through Bowling Green
              G
Yeah, there's nothing like the lines that run,
     D
from here to one-fourteen
       Em         C
If the road was a song, this is what it'd say
         Em        D        C
when you drive the Mountain Parkway
               Em        D           G
Yeah, when you drive the Mountain Parkway.
 
 
[Verse]
G                           Em
The wooden crosses and exit signs
G                            Em
The road contruction's faded lines
G                               Em
A place where all of these flat lands
                 G      Em
turn to mountain skies
G                         Em
An old barn where tobacco hangs
G                               Em
Farms where folks were born and stayed
G                           Em
And every house that I pass by
                       G        Em
has a worn flag that's raised.
 
 
[Chorus]
C                                 Em
I drove for miles, this is what I've seen
           G
Yeah, I've gone to all these places,
       D
like a door without a screen
             Em                 C
I've been to Nashville, through Bowling Green
              G
Yeah, there's nothing like the line that runs
     D
from here to one-fourteen
       Em         C
If the road was a song, this is what it'd say
         Em        D        C
when you drive the Mountain Parkway
               Em        D        G
Yeah, when you drive the Mountain Parkway.
 
 
[Bridge]
        C
Yeah, I know it like the back of my hand
            Em
Yeah, we're close just like a kin
        G
I could drive it with my eyes closed,
      D
but I wouldn't want to miss
Em
At mile marker twenty-two,
          C
where the hillsides show their face,
      C             D        G
right there, on the mountain parkway.
 
 
[Chorus]
            Bm                    C
I drove for miles, this is what I've seen
           G
Yeah, I've gone to all these places,
       D
like a door without a screen
             Em                     C
I've been to Pikeville, route twenty-three
              G
Yeah, there's nothing like the lines that run,
      D
sixty-four to one-fourteen
       Em         C
If the road was a song,this is what it'd say
         Em         D        C
when you drive, the Mountain Parkway
               Em        D        G
Yeah, when you drive the Mountain Parkway.
