Bbm With his old dog barking and running around Ab He paused for a second, spit on the ground Gb Ebm Then kicked a little gravel, looked down and said 🎸 Chorus: Db This is my dirt, these are my fields, Gb Ab where I harvest what I plant Db That little pond, I catch bluegill, Gb Ab I built that barn with my two hands Db Where I raise my babies, a piece of mе, nah, Gb Ab this ain't just a piece of land Bbm The monеy'd be great, Ab Gb but I can't part ways with a life that works Bbm Ab Gb You can't put a green bag dollar on what it's worth Db This is my dirt 🎸 Verse: Db Great granddaddy bought it for a hundred an acre Gb He'd just got married when he signed the papers Db Gb Him and his brothers framed that old farmhouse Bbm Every fence post here we put in the ground Ab Ran the barbed wire and pulled the plow Gb Every last hay bale, we baled it Ebm Yeah, I'd hate to be the first to sell it 🎸 Chorus: Db This is my dirt, these are my fields, Gb Ab where I harvest what I plant Db That little pond, I catch bluegill, Gb Ab I built that barn with my two hands Db Where I raise my babies, a piece of mе, nah, Gb Ab this ain't just a piece of land Bbm The monеy'd be great, Ab Gb but I can't part ways with a life that works Bbm Ab Gb You can't put a green bag dollar on what it's worth Db Gb Ab This is my dirt 🎸 Bridge: Bbm This is where five generations have prayed for rain Ab Gb Ebm They'll cover me in it when the good Lord calls my name 🎸 Chorus: Db This is my dirt, these are my fields, Gb Ab where I harvest what I plant Db That little pond, I catch bluegill, Gb Ab I built that barn with my two hands Db Where I raise my babies, a piece of mе, nah, Gb Ab this ain't just a piece of land Bbm The monеy'd be great, Ab Gb but I can't part ways with a life that works Bbm Ab Gb You can't put a green bag dollar on what it's worth Db This is my dirt 🎸 Outro: Yeah, this is my dirt Yeah, this is my dirt Where I harvest what I plant, this is my dirt Where I raise my babies, this is my dirt
