[Intro]
C Cm C [Verse]
C They came in thinkin' top dollar Em To that old cotton crop farmer F They knocked on his screen door
and he said C "Lord, what you need, boys?"
And they said C "You know all the others went
and cashed out Em They got the subdivision
all mapped out F It'll sit right here on this land C And you can leave town a rich man" G And he said, "Boys,
whatever you're offerin',
F
it won't be enough [Chorus] C 'Cause I got a little girl that
used to swing right there Em I still see her pink bow
in her brown hair F She's in the big city,
but she still calls home What's she gonna do if
she comes back and we're gone? C And over there,
under that wide oak tree Em Beneath the cross is
where my best buddy's buried F It lasted thirteen huntin'
season runnin' strong Keep your money
'cause a man can't leave his dog Am And over there is where
G F
I got down on one knee F G C You can't buy that kind of dirt cheap" [Verse]
C One man smiled and
he kinda looked away Em The other said,
"Before we go,
I gotta know one thing F Between thr droughts and
the floods through all the years What in the world got you through? How the heck'd you get here?"
And he said [Chorus]
C "That little girl that used to
swing right there Em I still see her pink bow
in her brown hair F Runnin' up after
one of them long days A big smile makin'
every litttle worry fade C And over there, under
that wide oak tree Em Beneath the cross where
my best buddy's buried F All them huntin' seasons
freezin' in a Jon boat Me and him, double-barrel and
a two-stroke Am G And that woman that said 'yes' when
F
I got down on one knee F Yeah you can't buy that
G C
kind of dirt cheap" [Break] Am No, it ain't somethin'
you fall into G It's somethin' God gives you F And you hold on to [Chorus]
C Just like that little girl
that used to swing right there C Em Still see her pink bow
in her brown hair Em F She's in the big city now,
but she still calls home She's comin' back next week and,
man, it's been too long C And over there,
under that wide oak tree Em Beside the cross where
my best buddy's buried F Lays a puppy posted up in the shade That woman never could turn
away a stray Am I guess that's why
G
she said 'yes' when
F
I got down on one knee Am Oh, long as all this is here,
G
why the heck would
F
I ever leave? Yeah you can't buy that
G C
kind of dirt cheap"
