[D]He'd been farming for sixty [G] -years
[G]Began with mules and a moldboard [D]plow
[A]Fighting the weather, and singing songs no one would [D]hear
[G]Weather worn... face [A]like leather; but making it [D]somehow.

[D]Well, the mules place was taken by the John Deere [G]Gee
[G]Two row corn picker...hand shucking no [D]more.
[A]He holds up one finger as he drives toward [D]me
[G]Last two corn rows; [A]"The one's I been lookin [D]for

[D]Next week will see his farm [G]sale
[G]Tractors and wagons and tools and [D]more
[A]Memories and dreams of past years will [D]wail
[G]Yes [A]The Day He'd Been Lookin [D]for

[D]Now the bidders are all gone....nothing to [G]do
[G]And He is sitting there, barely moving the [D]swing
[A]The rain- crow breaks into it's evening [D]coo
[G]And He wonders, [A]what will I do come [D]spring

[D]Now I know He and the Gee are out there ridin [G]easy
[G]Like many times [D]before
[A]And pulling that old picker, and singing
[A]"These are the rows, I been lookin [D]for."

[A]And pulling that old picker, and singing
[A]"These are the rows, I been lookin [D]for
