|G|D|Am|C|
[VERSE 1]
G
Talk about an uphill battle
D
Two thousand acres of beans and cattle
C
But he don't ever get rattled
He just goes 'til the sun goes down
G
Hydraulic fluid on his jeans
D
Red-dyed diesel and ten rows between
C
A cold one on the porch and a good nights sleep
Y'all hold 'em up with me now
[CHORUS]
D G
Here's to the farmer that plants the fields in the spring
D
That turn from green to that harvest honey
Am
Hold one up for the banker downtown
C D
That got him on his feet with handshake money
G
Here's to the farmer's wife
D
That loves him every night
Am
Raising a son, raising a daughter
G/B
They gather 'round the table, send it up to the Father
C G/B Am
Somehow they get closer when times get harder
Here's to the farmer
[INTRO 2]
|G|D|
[VERSE 2]
G
Subdivision's creeping on in
D
Neighborhood kids keep jumping his fence
C
He could double his money
But that'd be the end of a promise he'll never break
G
'Cause he looked his daddy in the eye
D
And he's got that stubborn pride
C
He'll be here 'til the day he dies
No, he wouldn't have it any other way
[CHORUS]
D G
Here's to the farmer that plants the fields in the spring
D
That turn from green to that harvest honey
Am
Hold one up for the banker downtown
C D
That got him on his feet with handshake money
G
Here's to the farmer's wife
D
That loves him every night
Am
Raising a son, raising a daughter
G/B
They gather 'round the table, send it up to the Father
C G/B Am
Somehow they get closer when times get harder
Here's to the farmer
[SOLO]
|G|D|Am|C D|
[CHORUS OUT]
G
Yeah, here's to the farmer that loves his day in the sun
D
Won't sell that old half-ton
Am C
Nobody knows better 'bout a hard-earned dollar
Am G/B C D
Just tell him how far he's gotta go and he'll go farther
Here's to the farmer
[OUTRO]
|G|D|Am|C|
Here's to the farmer
Thank you, boys
