  THE FARMER SONG

      by Murray McLachlin

  

  

  A          A6         A            A6

  Dusty old farmer out working your fields

          A          A6            E     E/F#

  Hanging down over your tractor wheels

      E            E/F#          E            E/F#

  The sun beatin' down turns the red pain to orange

      E         E/F#        A     A6 

  And rusty old patches of steel

          A                A6          A       A6

  There's no farmer songs on that car radio

        A               A6         D

  Just cowboys, truck drivers and pain

                  Bm           A             F#m

  Well this is my way to say thanks for the meal

         A                E          A      A6 

  And I hope there's no shortage of rain

  

  

                  A              A6         A        A6    

  Chorus		Straw hats and old dirty hankies

  =======           A       A6           E     E/F# 

  		Mopin' a face like a shoe

  		  E            E/F#           E            E/F#

  		Thanks for the meal here's a song that is real

                         E            E/F#     A    A6 

  		From a kid from the city to you

  

  Repeat chorus

  

  

  The combines gang up, take most of the bread

  Things just ain't like they used to be

  Though your kids are out after the American dream

  And they're workin in big factories

  Now If I come on by, when you're out in the sun

  Can I wave at you just like a friend

  These days when everyone's taking so much

  There's somebody giving back in

  

  

  Repeat chorus
