Verse 1
When I (F sharp minor) first came (G major) to this (D major) land,
(G major) I was not (D major) a (A major) wealthy man. (D major)
So (A major) I got my (B minor) self a farm, (A major)
and (G major) I did what (A major) I could. (D major)
So (G major) I (A major) got myself (D major) (A major) a farm, (D major)
called (G major) my farm (B minor) (B major) the (E major) muscle in my (A major) arm.
But (D major) the land (A major) was sweet (B minor) an (G major) d good, (A major)
(D major) and (G major) I did what (A major) I could (D major)
That farm had neither (A major) dog (B minor) nor (A major) cat,
(G major) not a (A major) soul to holler at
(D major) So I (A major) got myself (B minor) a wife, (A major)
and (G major) I did (A major) what I (D major) could
So (G major) I got (A major) myself a wife, (D major)
called (G major) my wife, (B major) run for (E major) your (A major) life
But (D major) the land (A major) was sweet (G major) and (A major) good, (D major)
(G major) and I did what (A major) I could (D major) (A major) (D major) (G major) (A major) (D major)
When a year (A major) had passed (G major) away, (A major)
(G major) I came (A major) home one summer day
(D major) Found I'd (A major) got myself (B minor) a son, (A major)
(D major) and (G major) I did (A major) what I could (D major)
Found (G major) I've (A major) got myself a son, (D major)
called (G major) my son, (B major) (E major) my work's (A major) done
But (D major) the (A major) land was sweet (G major) and good, (A major)
and (G major) I did what (A major) I could (D major)
Well he grew up (A major) and (B minor) left the farm, (A major)
(G major) brought a (A major) wife back on his (D major) arm
Soon the (A major) rooms were (B minor) full of kid (A major) s,
and (G major) I did what (A major) I could (D major)
Soon (G major) the rooms (D major) were full (A major) of kid (D major) s
Called (G major) those kids, (B major) flip your (E major) lid (A major) s
But (D major) the land (A major) was sweet (G major) and good
(A major) And (G major) I did what (A major) I could (D major) (G major) (A major)
When I (F sharp minor) first came (B minor) to (G major) this land, (D major)
(G major) I was not (D major) (A major) a wealthy man. (D major)
Now (A major) I've built my (B minor) family tree, (A major)
yes, I (G major) did (A major) what I could. (D major)
Now (F sharp major) (G major) I've (A major) built my (D major) fam (A major) ily tree
(D major) I (G major) call that tree (B major) enough (E major) for me
(A major) But (D major) the land (A major) was sweet (G major) and good
(A major) And (D major) (G major) I did what (A major) I could
(D major) And I (G major) called my farm (A major) the
muscle in my (D major) arm
Called (G major) my wife, (D major) (A major) run for your (D major) life
Called (G major) my son, (A major) (D major) my (A major) work's (D major) done
Called (G major) those (D major) kids, (A major) flip your lid (D major) s
Fam (G major) ily tree's (B major) enough (E major) for me (A major)
But (D major) the land (A major) was (G major) sweet and good (D major)
And (G major) I did what (A major) I could
