Farmer's Song - Murray Mclauchlan chords
Start Jamming...
[A] .
Dusty old farmer out working your field, hanging down over your tractor [E] wheel.
.
The sun beating down turned the red paint to orange, and rusty old patches [A] of steel.
.
There's no farmer songs on that car radio, just cowboys, truck drivers, [D] and pain.
.
Well this [E] is my way to [A] say thanks [B] for the [F#m] meal, and [Bm] I hope there's no shortage [A] of rain.
.
Straw hat and old dirty hankies, mopping the face [E] like a shoe.
Thanks for the meal, here's a song that is real, from a kid from the city [A] to you.
Straw hat and old dirty hankies, mopping the face [E] like a shoe.
Thanks for the meal, here's a song that is real, from a kid from the city [A] to you.
.
Combines gang up, make most of the bread, things just ain't like they used [E] to be.
.
Though your kids are out after the American dream, and they're working big [A] factories.
.
If I come by when you're out in the sun, can I wave at you just like [D] a friend?
.
These [E] days when [A] everyone's taking [F#m] so much, [Bm] there's [E] somebody giving [A] back in.
.
Straw hat and old dirty hankies, mopping the face like a [E] shoe.
Thanks for the meal, here's a song that is real, from a kid from the city to [A] you.
Straw hat and old dirty hankies, mopping the face [E] like a shoe.
