[D]
[E] [D]
[A]
Tonight there'll be [G] candlelight and roses
In this little country chapel that's almost falling [A] down
There'll [D] be tears in this old [G] farmer's eyes [D] this evening
When [A]
[E] I give my one possession to [A] that city boy from town
His [D] hair [G] is a little longer than [D] we're used to
But I guess [A] I should find something good [G] to say
About this man who's won the [D] farmer's daughter
[A]
And will soon become my son-in-law today
[G] Mama left eight years ago [D] December
And [A] it was hard to be a [B] dad and mama [D] too
But [G] somehow we made a home of this [D] old farmhouse
[E] And love was all my baby [A] ever knew
[D] He could be the richest [G] man in seven [D] counties
And not be good enough [E] to take her [G] hand
But he says he really loves the [D] farmer's daughter
And [F#m]
[A] I know the farmer's daughter loves [D] the man
