Verse 1
C F G C
He never went to school beyond the day he turned sixteen
F C G F
And I can�t say that I know being that poor really means
C F G Am
He wouldn�t be mistaken for a man of high degree
F C (play second half of intro here)
But he was just as smart as anyone could be
Verse 2 (same as the other verses, without 'intro'-ending)
The first thing I remember till the day I moved away
Up and every morning I don�t believe he missed a day
It was always after sundown when he pulled up in the yard
F C G F
He would be on a tractor and let me drive into the barn
=Chorus=
G C F C
While the planter, acre, baler they were all the same to me
F C G C
When I grow up a farmer is all I ever wanna be
G C F C
I know that he was tired but he would sit and watch me play
F C G (Play full intro)
In my imagination I was really making hay
I graduated highschool just before I turned eightteen
Two years into college when I had a change of dreams
I�d wear a dank old necktie like those city fellows do
I�d move out in the suburbs like a million other fools
I met a brown haired beauty who was sweet as she could be
The day that we were married he stood right there next to me
I knew that he was tired and he seemed so out of place
He never said a word but it was written on his face
=Chorus=
I couldn�t read the signs when she was falling out of love
The more he turned the lonelier till she�d finally had enough
So I�d pack up my suits and ties and gave them all away
And headed for the country just in time for making hay
No I won�t be mistaken for a man of high degree
�Cause I was born a farmer and that�s all I�ll ever be
=Chorus=
