Chord/Tab song: The Farmer Is the Man

Pete plays in A (capo 2nd fret), the rest is up to you


[G]When the farmer comes to town with his wagon broken down
The [C]farmer is the m[D]an that feeds 'em a[G]ll
[G]If you'll only look an' see, I think you will agree
That th[C]e farmer is the ma[D]n that feeds 'em a[G]ll

[G]The farmer is the man
The farmer is the man
Lives on credit 'til the [D]fall
Then they [G]take him by the hand
And they lead him from the land
And the [D]middle man's the [C]one that gets it [G]all

[G]When the lawyer hangs around, and the butcher cuts a pound
The f[C]armer is the m[D]an that feeds 'em [G]all
[G]And the preacher and the cook, they go strollin' by the brook
But the [C]farmer is the [D]man that feeds 'em [G]all

[G]The farmer is the man
The farmer is the man
Lives on credit 'til the [D]fall
[G]With the interest rates so high
It's a wonder he don't die
For the m[C]ortgage man's the o[D]ne that gets it [G]all

[G]When the banker says he's broke, and the merchant's up in smoke
They forg[C]et that it's the f[D]armer who feeds [G]'em all
[G]It would put them to the test, if the farmer took a rest
Then they'd k[C]now that he's the m[D]an who feeds 'em a[G]ll

[G]Well the farmer is the man
The farmer is the man
Lives on credit 'til the [D]fall
[G]And his pants are wearin' thin
His condition it's a sin
He's forg[C]ot that he's the [D]man that feeds 'em [G]all
