The Panhandlers – Where Cotton Is King Chords

[Intro]
D
 
 
[Verse 1]
D
Coffee black before the sun
  C
A whole lot of work 

that's gotta get done
G                        
Put 'em in the ground 
                        D
and hope the hill don't come
D
Right now, it don't look like much
     C
Just lonely rows and 

mounds of dust
    G                        
But sleeping underneath is a 
                D
seed of boom or bust
 
 
[Chorus]
   A
So I tend the fields, 

I dig the ditch
G                  
I'm a sand fightin' 
D
son of a b*tch
A                      
Serving out my sentence 
       C
on the plains
N.C.            D C G
Where cotton is king
 
 
[Verse 2]
D
Mother Nature, she's the queen
       C
She'll grant your wish, 

haunt your dreams
G                        
Brought the boll weevil, 
                D
stripped us clean
D
Bank put a lean on 

the family land
    C
But I ain't scared 

of a company man
    G                
I'm taking it back, 
              D
I'm making my stand
 
 
[Chorus]
   A
So I tend the fields, 

I dig the ditch
G                  
I'm a sand fightin' 
D
son of a b*tch
A                       
All I've got to lose is 
     C
everything
                D C G
Where cotton is king
                D C G
Where cotton is king
 
 
[Bridge]
F
Back section breaking down
G
Diesel leaking on the ground
F                       
Heavy lies and heavy wears 
    G
the crown
 
 
[Fiddle Solo]
D C G   D C G
 
 
[Guitar Solo]
D C G   D C G
 
 
[Chorus]
A N.C.
I tend the fields, 

I dig the ditch
G                  
I'm a sand fightin' 
D
son of a b*tch
A                           
Whole generation's praying 
        C
for the rain
                D C G
Where cotton is king
                D C G
Where cotton is king
                D C G
Where cotton is king
                D C G
Where cotton is king
 
 
[Outro]
