[Intro]
C Cm C
[Verse]
C
They came in thinkin'
top dollar
Em
To that old cotton
crop farmer
F
They knocked on his screen
door and he said
C
"Lord, what you need, boys?"
And they said
C
"You know all the others
went and cashed out
Em
They got the subdivision
all mapped out
F
It'll sit right here
on this land
And you can leave town
C
a rich man"
G
And he said, "Boys, whatever
you're offerin',
F
it won't be enough
[Chorus]
C
'Cause I got a little girl
that used to swing right there
Em
I still see her pink bow
in her brown hair
F
She's in the big city,
but she still calls home
What's she gonna do if she
comes back and we're gone?
C
And over there, under
that wide oak tree
Em
Beneath the cross is where
my best buddy's buried
F
It lasted thirteen huntin'
season runnin' strong
Keep your money 'cause a
man can't leave his dog
Am
And over there is where
G F
I got down on one knee
F G
You can't buy that kind
C
of dirt cheap"

[Verse]
C
One man smiled and he
kinda looked away
Em
The other said, "Before we go,
I gotta know one thing
F
Between thr droughts and the
floods through all the years
What in the world got
you through?
How the hell'd you get here?"
And he said
[Chorus]
C
"That little girl that used
to swing right there
Em
I still see her pink bow
in her brown hair
F
Runnin' up after one of
them long days
A big smile makin' every
litttle worry fade
C
And over there, under
that wide oak tree
Em
Beneath the cross where
my best buddy's buried
F
All them huntin' seasons
freezin' in a Jon boat
Me and him, double-barrel
and a two-stroke
Am
And that woman that said
G
'yes' when I got down
F
on one knee
F
Yeah you can't buy that
G C
kind of dirt cheap"
[Break]
Am
No, it ain't somethin'
you fall into
G
It's somethin' God gives you
F
And you hold on to
[Chorus]
C
Just like that little girl
that used to swing
right there
C Em
Still see her pink bow
in her brown hair
Em F
She's in the big city now,
but she still calls home
She's comin' back
next week and,
man, it's been too long
C
And over there, under
that wide oak tree
Em
Beside the cross where
my best buddy's buried
F
Lays a puppy posted up
in the shade
That woman never could
turn away a stray
Am
I guess that's why she said
G
'yes' when I got down
F
on one knee
Am
Oh, long as all
this is here,
G
why the hell would
F
I ever leave?
Yeah you can't buy that
G C
kind of dirt cheap"
