Verse 1
I bought (A minor)
this land from Ern (C major) est Day
He (F major) was a (G major) troubled man (C major)
One (A minor) night he made his (E minor) wife afraid
with (F major) his (G major) angry hand. (C major)
Her (A minor) fear of him drove (E minor) her away,
(F major) she took his (G major) children in (A minor) hand.
Everything that (C major) Ernest Day
loved (F major) about (G major) this (A minor) land.
The house was all in (C major) shambles,
the (F major) ceiling (G major) sinking low (C major)
The (A minor) garden full of brambles, (E minor)
where (F major) only weeds (G major) (C major) would grow
He (A minor) let his agent handle (E minor) it,
(F major) ne gotiations (G major) slow (A minor)
I think that maybe Ern (C major) est Day
weren't (F major) sure where (G major) he would
(A minor) go (F major) (E major) (A minor)
(F major) (E major) (C major) (A minor)
I was a city dwell (C major) er,
a (F major) gamesman (G major) of the (C major) mind
A (A minor) complicated fella, (E minor)
confused (F major) by (G major) the (C major) times
I (A minor) wondered how to (E minor) tell her
I need (F major) space (G major) to un (A minor) wind
And what Ernest Day said (C major) was his,
I (F major) wanted to (G major) be (A minor) mine (C major) (F major) (G major) (C major)
(A minor) (E minor) (F major)
(G major) (C major) (A minor) (E minor) (F major) (G major) (A minor)
(C major) (F major) (G major) (A minor)
And now I'm sitting all (C major) alone
in the (F major) house that (G major) I rebuilt (C major)
Won (A minor) dering how a (E minor) man like me
might (F major) come to (G major) know him (C major) self
Think (A minor) ing that's the only (E minor) thing
con (F major) stitut (G major) ing wealth (A minor)
Thanking Mr. (C major) Earnest Day
for (F major) giving me (G major) some (A minor) help (F major) (E major) (A minor)
(F major)
Oh, (E major) oh, oh, oh (G major) -o (A minor) h
