The way he keeps looking that old man in the eye. It adds weight to this song that leaves a lump in my throat. That look is exactly what this song is about.
I dont understand how this doesn't have more view. JDW, and gems are some of my favorite combinations of all time, better than chocolate peas and vanilla carrots.
The crossover i didn't know I needed. Dave Stamey is from my area, and I love Jason. Glad he knows about Dave, both are seriously under appreciated artists.
This is great. His playing is so genuine, always a pleasure to listen to. Excited for his upcoming album! Chords and lyrics below and on Ultimate Guitar as always folks! Standard tuning, Capo on 5 The C is normally played like a C/G (332010), I noted a simple C for reasons of clarity Intro G C G x2 Verse 1,3,4 G C / G D / G G/F# Em / C G / G C / G D / G G/F# Em / C D G Verse 2 G C / G D / G G/F# Em / C D / G C / G D / G G/F# Em / C D G Chorus 1 D G / D Em / C G Em / G D G C G Chorus 2 & 3 D G / D Em / C G Em / C D G Interlude G C D G Outro C D G [Intro] [Verse 1] There’s an old gravel road It's following the section line Out where dreams are held together With sweat and baling twine Where you rattle your bones on a tractor Over thirty years old And there’s a mortgage and kids to be fed Out on Twelve Mile Road [Verse 2] Well, it's just a stretch of country The wind comes blowing through The Homesteaders starved out and blew away Ain't nobody out here but you And you know someday it’s gonna turn around But Lord, it turns so slow But it ain’t rained since April Out on Twelve Mile Road [Chorus] Out on Twelve Mile Road Lord it turns so slow Hanging on to a ragged dream Out on Twelve Mile Road [Verse 3] Now you raised some hay and a few head of cows You swing a hammer in town You do anything you can goddamn do To keep your feet on the ground Cause if a man works hard enough He can turn that straw into gold Or ain’t that the way it’s supposed to be Out on Twelve Mile Road? [Chorus] Out on Twelve Mile Road Lord it turns so slow Hanging on to a ragged dream Out on Twelve Mile Road [Interlude] [Verse 4] Now you dream of the day when the air is clean The fences all run true All of your worries just vanished like smoke And all the hard times are through You’ll look down from the top of the hill Your dreams are there to hold Or ain’t that the way that it’s supposed to be Out on Twelve Mile Road? [Chorus] Out on Twelve Mile Road Lord it turns so slow I've been hanging on to a ragged dream Out on Twelve Mile Road Out on Twelve Mile Road Lord it turns so slow Hanging on to a ragged dream Out on Twelve Mile Road [Outro]
Never fails to amaze. Saw him with Lost Dog in Detroit. Small venue (The Majestic), packed to the gills. Best show I've ever seen. Keep it up Jason we love you and thank you
@@andyhinners4402 From what I've seen of it, there's not a lot to miss but you can still see the grandeur that once was. Hope you can get back to visit someday, safely.
This man already has the characteristics of a grey old man playing on the porch of a family ranch, quieting down his children and grandchildren to listen to them chords and stories
