[Verse 2]
(D) - (A) - (E)
[G](A) We worked through Spring and Winter,
through [C](D) Summer and through (A)[G]Fall
But the mortgage worked the [Em]hardest
[C]and the (E)[D] steadiest of us all
It [G](A)worked on nights and Sundays,
it [C](D) worked each holi[Am]day
[D](E)Settled down among [G]us
and it never went (A) away
[C]The

[Verse 3]
[G]farmer comes to town with
his [C]wagon broken [G]down
The farmer is [Em]the man [G]who feeds us [D]all[A][D]
If you [G]only look and see I
[C]know you will [Am]agree
[A]That the [D]farmer is the man
[G]who feeds us all

[Verse 4]
[G](A) The farmer is the man,
the farmer is the man
He buys on his [C]credit [G]until (E)[D]Fall[A][D]
Then they [G](A) take him by the hand
And they [C](D) lead him from [A]his land
And the [D](E) merchant is the man who gets [G]it (A) all

[Verse 5]
The [G]farmer is the man,
[C]the far[G]mer is the man
He lives on his [C]credit [G]until [D]Fall[A][D]
With the [G]interest rates so high
It's a [C]wonder he don't [A]die
But the [D]taxes on the farmer
feeds us [G]all[Em]
[A][D]

[Verse 6]
[G]
Well, the banker says he's broke and
the [C]merchant stops [G]and smoke
But they forget that it's the farmer
that feeds them [D]all
It would [G]put them to the test
if the [C]farmer took [Am]a rest
[A]And they'd [D]know that it's
the farmer that feeds them [G]all

[Verse 7]
The [G]farmer is the man,
the farmer is the man
Lives on his credit until [D]Fall[A][D]
Well, his [G]pants are wearing thin
His con[C]dition, it's [A]a sin
'Cause the [D]taxes on the farmer feeds [G]us all
