[Intro]
[C] [G] [F]
[Verse]
[C]Before the sun came up, [G]he sipped that coffee black,
Sl[C]id on his muddy boots, [F]pulled down his feed store cap.
[C]He taught me how to grease the points, on that [G]massive 2-4-0
[F]but I was way to busy, didn't really care to go.[AM]
[G]So he worked the feilds alone, [F] [AM] [G]but what I didn't know.
[Chorus]
[C]Up on that [G]tractor, things might be faste[AM]r in the world
[G]but big wheels rolling slow.
[F]Help you see whats important[C], what really does [F]matter,
[G]up on the tractor.
[F] [C] [F] [AM] [G]
[Verse]
[C]Just like the dirt is black, [G]so do the years fly by.
[F]He stayed home with mom, I travelled far and wide.
[C]And like a good man does [G]he listened when I called.
[F]Told him about my crazy life, and all the things I saw.[AM]
An[G]d when it was time to go, [F] [AM] [G]he wanted me to know.
[Chorus]
[C]Up on that [G]tractor, things might be faste[AM]r in the world
[G]but big wheels rolling slow.
[F]Help you see whats important[C], what really does [F]matter,
[G]up on the tractor.
[Bridge]
[F]It tore my world apart,[G] when god took him away.
[AM]Didnt get to say goodbye,[C] I miss him everyday.
[F]When all the feilds grew up, [G]this is right back where I came.
[Chorus]
[C]Up on that [G]tractor, things might be faste[AM]r in the world
[G]but big wheels rolling slow.
[C]Up on that [G]tractor, things might be faste[AM]r in the world
[G]but big wheels rolling slow.
[F]Help you see whats important[C], what really does[F] matter,
[F]I know even [C]more now, what really does [F]matter,
[G]up on the tractor.
