D D 
 
G G 
 
Four year's old my birthday
A A 
 
D D 
 
Opened presents, ate some cake
G G 
 
A A 
 
I took my Tonka straight outside to play
D D 
 
In dirt
G G 
 
A A 
 
Six years old, hard line drive
D D 
 
That ball just sailed on by

'Cause I was busy writing
A A 
 
that name of mine
D D 
 
In dirt
G G 
 
It was my first

Verse 2
love
A A 
 
Good as gold
D D 
 
Heaven was a shovel and
a two foot hole
G G 
 
Mama should have bought all
A A 
 
my clothes in brown
D D 
 
'Cause I'd turn 'em
that color anyhow
G G 
 
Even between the car and the front
A A 
 
steps of that church
D D 
 
Was dirt
G G 
 
A A 
 
D D 
 

Verse 3
G G 
 
A A 
 
Turned sixteen bought a Chevrolet

Four wheel drive, what a happy day
G G 
 
A A 
 
So even if it rained I could play
D D 
 
In dirt
G G 
 
Couple years later, wouldn't you know
A A 
 
D D 
 
Lost my heart at the rodeo
She fell off her horse and was
G G 
 
A A 
 
covered head to toe
D D 
 
In dirt
G G 
 
It was my first

Verse 4
love
A A 
 
Good as gold
D D 
 
Heaven was a shovel and a two foot hole
G G 
 
It's the reason I'm out
A A 
 
here tilling this land
D D 
 
And that rodeo queen's
got a ring on her hand
G G 
 
I don't know where I'd
A A 
 
be if it weren't
G G 
 
For dirt

Interlude 1

Verse 5
A A 
 
ain't afraid of growing old
D D 
 
'Cause when I die I know where I'll go
G G 
 
A A 
 
There'll be no need to cry for me

I won't need your sympathy
G G 
 
When they cover me up
A A 
 
with six feet of earth
D D 
 
It's just dirt
