Intro G C G C G D (2X) 
 
G                                                   C 
D 
The old man loaded up everything that he owned in a wagon and headed out 
west 
 
G 
C                        D 
The old woman fearless to face the unkown cause she figured he knew what 
was best 
 
C                               G 
C                         D 
And they settled down hard on a government grant, with 6 mouths to feed 
and 40 
 
        acres to plant 
 
 
CHORUS..................................................................... 
............. 
 
D                 Em   G 
And the rain came down 
 
C                            D 
Like an angel sent down from above 
 
                  Em   G 
And the Rain came down 
 
C                              D 
Well once it starts there aint never enough 
 
...........................................................................

VERSE 2 
 
G                                     C              D 
Fall turn to Winter another year gone over and over again 
 
G 
C                              D 
Some took their lives from the land and moved on some stayed on to plow 
it back in 
 
C                                  G 
And the Good Lord He giveth and He taketh away 
 
    C                             D 
And the restless shall go and the faithfull shall stay 
 
REPEAT CHORUS

Bridge: 
 
D                                                   C            G 
Well my grandfather died in the room he was born in 23 summers ago 
 
D 
C                           G      But I could've sworn he's beside me 
this mornin' when the sheriff showed up at my door 
 
C                                       G 
So don't you come around here with your auctioneer man 
 
              C                               D 
Cause you can have the machines but you aint taken my land
