[Intro]
E A E
[Verse 1]
E
Buy the farm, tear the soil
A
Plant the seeds and then rebuild
A
The old farm house with the silo
E A
That is filled with bones
[Verse 2]
E
In the barn, sickly sheep
E
Tenant sold them real real cheap
A
We kept the donkey named her Jenny
E A
But she's no longer awake
[Bridge]
E A
I could say that it's beautiful
E
And I wouldn't be wrong
A B7
And all that beauty cost
E
Was the pain that followed
[Verse 3]
E
Cleared the barn and bought a cow
A
Hay on stone and fenced in now
A
Mother says don't get attached
E A
For these years will be his last
[Verse 4]
E
Buried now our pregnant sow
A
Were we lucky? Hard to tell
A
We kept them warm when they were tired
E A
Never did expect the fire
[Bridge]
E A
I could say that it's beautiful
E
And I wouldn't be wrong
A B7 A B7
And all that beauty cost, yes, all that beauty cost
E
Was the pain that followed
[Outro]
