C G
Late summer day and my
Am F
Love and I went walking
C G
Over hills and fields we walked
F C
Laughing and talking
C G
Came across an old farmhouse
Am F
Standing broken and bare
C G
It used to be someone's home
F C
Now no one lives there.
 
C G
There's a red barn standing
Am F
Held together with nails and dust
C G
And a tired old Massey Harris
F C
All wires and rust
C G
Weeds overgrown in a
Am F
Garden sown with care
C G
It used to be someone's home
F C
Now no one lives there
 
Am G
And through the crack in the window pane
F C
I hear the sound of the falling rain
Am G
Another farm being left run down
F C
Another family moved into town
F
Had a life that they tried to save
C
But the banks took it all away
Am G
Hung a sign on a torn screen door
G F C
Nobody lives here no more
 
Am G
They worked their fingers to the bone
F C
Nothing left hey can call their own
Am G
Packed it in under leaden skies
F C
With just the wheat waving them goodbye
F
Had a life that they tried to save
C
But the banks took it all away
Am G
Hung a sign on a torn screen door
F C
Nobody lives here no more
 
F
Had a life that they tried to save
C
But the banks took it all away
Am G
Hung a sign on a torn screen door
G F C
Nobody lives here no more
