[Intro]
C F G
[Verse]
C
He had hard work caked on his overalls
F
Sweat on his neck, chaw in his jaw
C F
When a stranger pulled up and met him outside his barn
C
He said, sir, I don’t know if you ever would
F
But I built houses and neighborhoods
C F
And I was wondering if you’d ever want to sell your farm
[Pre-Chorus]
Am
With his old dog barking and running around
G
He paused for a second, spit on the ground
F Dm7
Kicked a little gravel, looked down and said
[Chorus]
C
This is my dirt, these are my fields
F G
Where I harvest what I plant
C
That little pond, I catch bluegill
F G
I built that barn with my two hands
C
Where I raised my babies a piece of me
F G
Nah this ain’t just a piece of land
Am
The money’d be great
G F
But I can’t part ways with a life that works
Am G F
You can’t put a greenback dollar on what it’s worth
C F G
This is my dirt
[Verse]
C
Great granddaddy bought it for a hundred and acre
F
He just got married when he signed the papers
C F
Him and his brothers framed that old farmhouse
[Pre-Chorus]
Am
Every fence post here we put in the ground
G
Ran the barbwire and pulled the plow
F
Every last hay bale we baled it
Dm
Yeah, I’d hate to be the first to sell it
[Chorus]
C
This is my dirt, these are my fields
F G
Where I harvest what I plant
C
That little pond, I catch bluegill
F G
I built that barn with my two hands
C
Where I raised my babies a piece of me
F G
Nah this ain’t just a piece of land
Am
The money’d be great
G F
But I can’t part ways with a life that works
Am G F
You can’t put a greenback dollar on what it’s worth
C F G
This is my dirt
[Break]
Am
This is where five generations have preyed for rain
G F Dm
They’ll cover me in it when the good Lord calls my name
[Chorus]
C
This is my dirt, these are my fields
F G
Where I harvest what I plant
C
That little pond, I catch bluegill
F G
I built that barn with my two hands
C
Where I raised my babies a piece of me
F G
Nah this ain’t just a piece of land
Am
The money’d be great
G F
But I can’t part ways with a life that works
Am G F
You can’t put a greenback dollar on what it’s worth
C F
And this is my dirt
[Outro]
G C
Yeah, this is my dirt
F G C
Yeaaaah, this is my dirt
F G
Where I harvest what I plant
C
This is my dirt
F G
Where I raise my babieeees
C
This is my dirt
