John Deere Green

G
They were farm kids way down in 
Dixie

C                       G
They met in high school in the 
sixties

Everyone knew it was love from the 
D7
start
G
One July in the midnight hour
C                  G
He climbed upon the water tower
                      D7           
Stood on the rail and painted a ten
      C       D
 foot heart

In John Deere Green
G    D           C
On a hot summer night
         Em        D         C
He wrote Billy Bob loves Charlene
G          D            C
In letters three foot high


        Em
And the whole town said
        D
that he should had used red
        G                 C
But it looked good to Charlene
   Em   D     G
in John Deere Green


They settled down on eighty acres
Raising sweet corn, kids and 
tomatoes
They went together like a hand and a
 glove
On a clear day from their front yard
He you look and know what to look 
for
Off to the east you can still read 
his words of love
