Verse 1
(G major) Well, there ain't nothing (G minor) in the world
that I like bet (G major) ter
than bacon and (C major) lettuce
and homegrown (D major) tomatoes.
Up in the morning, out in the garden,
(G major) get you a ripe one,
don't get (D major) a hard one.
(G major) Plant them in the spring,
eat them in the summer.
(C major) All winter without them's
a culinary bummer (G major) .
(D major) I forget all about the
sweating and digging,
every (G major) time I go out and (D major) pick
me a big one.
Homegrown (G minor) tomatoes,
homegrown (G major) tomatoes
What'll life be (C minor) without (G major)
homegrown tomatoes
Only (D major) two things that money can't buy
And (G major) that's true love and homegrown (D major)
tomatoes (G major) (C major)
(D major) (G major)
(D major)
Now if (G major) I was to change it,
now you can (G minor) go out (G major) to eat,
that's for sure, but it's nothin' (C minor) a
homegrown tomato won't (C major) cure,
put (D major) him in a salad, put him in a stew,
you can (G major) make your very
own tomato (D major) juice.
You can (G major) eat them with eggs,
you can eat them with gravy,
eat them (C major) with beans, (G major) (C major) pinto (G major) or navy. (C major)
(G major) Put (D major) them on the side,
put them in the middle,
put a (G major) homegrown tomato
on a (D major) hotcake griddle.
(G major) Homegrown tomatoes,
homegrown tomatoes,
what'll (C major) life be without
homegrown (C minor) (C major) tomatoes?
(G major) (D major) Only two things that money can't buy,
and (G major) that's true love and
homegrown (D major) (G major) (C major)
(D major) (G major)
(D major) Now if (G major) I was to change this life I lead
I'd (C major) feed Johnny and tomato seed
Cause (D major) I know what this country needs
It's (G major) homegrown tomatoes
in every (D major) yard you see
So (G major) when I die, don't bury me
In a (C major) box in a cemetery
Out (G major) in (D major) a garden would be much better
And (G major) I could be push (D major) in' up
Homegrown tomatoes,
homegrown (G major) tomatoes,
homegrown tomatoes
What'll (C minor) life be without
homegrown (C major) toma (G major) toes
Only (D major) two things that money can't buy
And (G major) that's true love and
homegrown (D major) tomatoes
Homegrown (G major) tomatoes,
homegrown tomatoes
What'll (C major) life be without
homegrown tomatoes
Only (D major) two things that money can't buy,
an (G major) d that's true love and homegrown (D major)
Outro 1
