Verse 1
G 
There was Bob on the banjo
and Dave on the old mandolin
D 
And somebody cried out,
G 
oh won't you please play that again
C 
Oh, what a joy just to hear
G 
that old music again
D 
Being close and by your friends
C 
Just sitting there talking
D 
Bm 
and thinking
D 
G 
about the places we've been
Then someone starts singing
D 
and strumming a sad melody
And the words tell a story
G 
about someone like you and like me
C 
Of livin', lovin' and the highway
G 
where a man can be free
Goes so easily
D 
Just to remind us
Bm 
D 
G 
how simple this old life could be
Like David and Susan
D 
who decided to follow their dreams
About leaving the city
G 
and going to the country, it seems
C 
Out to a valley
where the waters flow peacefully
G 
D 
Just a sweet country dream
Where the stars shine so bright
Bm 
D 
And the air always smell
G 
s sweet and clean
About Lou who was restless,
D 
just thinking about going out west
Till the day that he died,
G 
his life was the family he left
C 
It's been hard on the kids,
G 
but I hear that she's doing her best,
D 
I'd venture this guess.
Bm 
She's livin' and growin' and learnin'
D 
G 
D 
Bm 
D 
G 
like all of the rest
There was Bob on the banjo,
D 
Dave on the old mandolin
And somebody cried out,
G 
oh, won't you please play that again?
C 
Oh, what a joy just to hear
G 
that old music again.
D 
Those times with your friends
C 
Just sittin' there talkin'
D 
Bm 
and thinkin'
D 
G 
About the places we've been
