Farmer's Daughter
Intro: DGDAD
(D)Tonight there'll be (G)candlelight and (D)roses
In this little country chapel that's almost falling (A7)down
There'll be (D)tears in this old (G}farmer's eyes this (D)evening
When I (E)give my one possession to that (A)city boy from town
His (D)hair is a little (G)longer than we're (D)use to
But, I guess I should find something good to (G)say
About this man whose won the farmer's (D)daughter
And will (A7)soon become my son-in-law (D)today
(G)Mama left eight years ago (D)December
And it was (A7)hard to be a Dad and Mama (D)too
But, some(G)how we made home of this old (D)farmhouse
And (E)love was all my baby ever (A)knew
*(D)He could be the (G)richest man in seven (D)counties
And not be good enough to take her (G)hand
But, he says he really loves the farmer's (D)daughter
And I (A7)know the farmer's daughter loves the (D)man
Ending same as intro.
