        G 
Hardest work that ever I done, was done beneath that burning sun 
             D               G 
Hauling that tobacco around to cure. 
       
I would chop that wicked weed til my hands and fingers bleed 
              D             G 
Working like a mule maybe more 
          C                           G 
We've been farming on this land since 1810 
        Em                  C              D 
Through flood, drought and pestilence and war 
      G 
Now I sure am sad to say that I lived to see this day 
                  D                       G 
And we don't grow tobacco around here no more! 

C G We don't grow, we don't grow D Oh, it's still the only work we'll ever know C G Well, we don't grow, we don't grow D G We don't grow tobacco around here no more!
G Grandpa told me this, I know Change is coming won't be slow D G Knocking just like a thunder at the door Barren fields are all around, empty barns just falling down D G Well Iron weeds coming up through the floor C G Once we growed it by the pound Now the kids all moved to town Em C D And all that's left are elderly and poor G Now I sure am sad to say That I will live to see this day D G And we don't grow tobacco around here no more C G We don't grow, we don't grow D Oh, it's still the only work we'll ever know C G Well, we don't grow, we don't grow D G We don't grow tobacco around here no more! Whoooo yes I sure am sad to say This way of life has gone away D G Now that we don't grow tobacco around here no more D G Well, No we don't grow tobacco around here no more!
