Farmers Blues Chords

Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

 The D in the intro (and after chorus) is strummed very quickly.

Listen to the song, and you'll figure it out.

Intro

A E A D A

Stuart:

 Who'll buy my whAeat, who'll buy my corn?

 To feed my baDbies when they are bAorn

 Seeds and dirt, a prayer for rain that I can Euse.

AI work the land, I watch the sky

 I talk to GDod and wonder wAhy

 But it's the F♯monly life I kEnow, these farmer's blAues.

(chorus)

 I see the seaEsons come and go

 Sending raDin, fire, and snAow.

 I'm at the mercy of it all, this life I chEoose.

 Sometimes I haAng my head and cry

 When that evenDing train comes bAy.

 I wish it could tF♯make me far aEway

 These farmer's blAues.

A E A D A

Haggard:

 TheA tractor's old, the fence is down

 Put on my sDuit and go to town.

 I ask for a loAan and I know well they might reEfuse

 Back at hoAme, still by my side

 The one I lovDe, with worried eyAes

 Waits forF♯m me to love aEway, these farmer's bAlues.

(Repeat chorus)
