John Doe on a John Deere

	  		G                                C 
I drove a beat up tractor down a one lane road 
G                      C 
Pick her up early and away we'd go 
G                       D                   G 
Dow to the river by the edge of her daddy's farm. 
G                                C 
We used to lay in the shade of a cottonwood tree 
G                        C 
In the back of my mind I thought she'd be 
G                       D         G 
The one who'd spend forever in my arms 
C                         D 
She said there's gotta be more to life 
C                     D 
I don't wanna be some farmer's wife. 
C                          G 
Don't want a John Doe on a John Deere 
C                               G 
There's a whole lotta boys like you around here 
  C                     D     C 
I wanna hear love songs in my ear 
G                         C 
Don't wanna John Doe on a John Deere 
      G             D    G 
Not a John Doe on a John Deere. 
G                               C 
Well, she packed her things and left this town 
G                   C 
I kept workin' this rock hard ground 
G                     D             G 
Wondering if she ever thought about me 
G                            C 
Then she called collect from San Antone 
G                 C 
Just to hear some news from home 
G                     D                   G 
She laughed about how good things used to be 
C                   D 
This big city ain't good for me 
C                         D 
I'll meet you down by the cottonwood tree. 
C                      G 
I need a John Doe on a John Deere 
C                               G 
There's ain't a lotta boys like you around here 
  C                     D     C 
I wanna hear love songs in my ears 
G                      C 
I need a John Doe on a John Deere 
G                   C 
Wanna John Doe on a John Deere.
