Verse 1
C
I wish a buck was still silver
F
It was back when the country was strong
G
Back before Elvis, before
C
Vietnam war came along
Before the Beatles and yesterday
F
When a man could still work and still would
G
Is the best of the free life behind us now
C
And are the good times really over for good?
Chorus 1
C
And are we rolling downhill
F
like a snowball headed for hell
G
With no kinda chance for the flag
C
or the liberty bell?
Wish a Ford and a Chevy
F
Would still last ten years like they should
G
Is the best of the free life behind us now
C
And are the good times really over for good?
Verse 2

I wish coke was still cola
F
And a joint was a bad place to be
G
C
It was back before Nixon lied to us all on T.V.
Before microwave ovens

Are the good times really over for good?
Chorus 2
C
Are we rolling downhill
F
like a snowball headed for hell

or the liberty bell?
Wish a Ford and a Chevy

G
Is the best of the free life behind us now

And are the good times really over for good?
Verse 3
C
Stop rolling downhill
F
like a snowball headed for hell
G
Stand up for the flag
C
and let's all ring the liberty bell
Let's make a Ford and a Chevy
F
That would still last ten years like they should
'Cause the best of the free life
G
is still yet to come
C
And the good times ain't over for good
