Farmers Daughter chords by Merle Haggard

C                   F               C
Tonight there'll be candlelight and roses

                                                    G7
In this little country chapel that's almost falling down

            C                 F                  C
There'll be tears in this old farmer's eyes this evening

       D7                             G7
When I give my one possession to that city boy from town


    C                F                 C
His hair is a little longer than we're use to

                                            F
But I guess I should find something good to say

                                      C
About this man whose won the farmer's daughter

         G7                        C
And will soon become my son-in-law today


F                          C
Momma left eight years ago December

           G7                         C
And it was hard to be a dad and momma too

    F                                C
But somehow we made home of this old farmhouse

    D7                        G7
And love was all my baby ever knew


C               F                    C
He could be the richest man in seven counties

                                   F
And not be good enough to take her hand

                                         C
But he says he really loves the farmer's daughter

      G7                                   C
