song: house and 90 acers

by: chris knight

Intro (Em C D Em) x2

Em C D Em

I've got a house and 90 acres some cattle in the barn

Em C D Em

Two kids with no mama, she left in a saleman's arms

C G C G

A sign by the mailbox says there's an auction in the yard

Em C D Em

Born and raised has been damn easy but lately living's hard

Em C D Em

The children miss their mama but there ain't nothing I can do

Em C D Em

If she was all I had to worry about well I'd guess I'd miss her too

C G C G

But I've watched my tools and tractor leave in someone else's hands

Em C D C

I grit my teeth, I'm let 'em go but I won't give up my land

G D

This house and 90 acres, the only place I've left to stand

Em C D C

My roots are anchored solid, I ain't machinery I'm a man

G D

I'll be here in the morning come pouring rain or sun

Em C

This house and 90 acres

D

What's said is good as done

(Em C D Em) x2

Em C D Em

There's jobs up in the city I could probably drive a truck

Em C D Em

Or I could move 300 miles from home but that would be giving up

C G C G

Well you know that I ain't leaving if it's just my pride I save

Em C D C

I might be on the front porch or I might be in a hillside grave

G D

This house and 90 acres, the only place I've left to stand

Em C D C

My roots are anchored solid, I ain't machinery I'm a man

G D

I'll be here in the morning come pouring rain or sun

Em C

This house and 90 acres

D

What's said is good as done

Em C

This house and 90 acres

D

What's said is good as done

Em C D Em (to fade)
