[Prelude]
E
Blow up your TV, throw away your 
paper
           B
Go to the country
               E
and build your home
               E
Plant a little garden
             E
Eat a lot of peaches
             B          E
Try and find  Jesus all on your own.

[Verse 1]
D
Few days before he turned 80
A
He was sitting out back in a rocker
G
He said "what you been up to 
lately?"

I told him chasin' dollar
D
And in between sips of coffee
A
He poured this wisdom out
G                               N.C.
Said if you want my two cents on 
making a dollar count


[Chorus]
      D
Buy dirt
                                A
Find the one you can't live without
Get a ring, let your knee hit the 
 Bm
ground
                              G
Do what you love but call it work
And throw a little money in the 
            D
plate at church

Send your prayers up and your roots 
      A
down deep
                                 Bm
Add a few limbs to your family tree
Watch their pencils marks, and the 
G
grass in the yard

All grow up
D
'Cause the truth about it is
A
It all goes by real quick
Bm                      G
And You can't buy happi-ness
                D
But you can buy dirt


[Verse 2]
D
Before you get caught on that ladder
A
Let me tell you what it's all about
G
Find you a few things that matter

That you can put a fence around
  N.C.
And then he laid it out


[Chorus]
    D
Buy dirt
                                A
Find the one you can't live without
Get a ring, let your knee hit the 
Bm
ground
                             G
Do what you love but call it work
And throw a little money in the 
            D
plate at church
Send your prayers up and your roots 
     A
down deep
                                 Bm
Add a few limbs to your family tree
And watch their pencils marks, and 
    G
the grass in the yard

All grow up
D                         A
'Cause the truth about it is

It all goes by real quick
Bm                  G
You can't buy happi-ness
                Bm     A
But you can buy dirt
            G       D
You can buy dirt

[Bridge]
A
And thank the good Lord for it
         N.C.
'Cause He ain't makin' any more of 
it

[Chorus]
      D
Buy dirt
                                A
Find the one you can't live without
Get a ring, let your knee hit the 
 Bm
ground
                              G
Do what you love but call it work
And throw a little money in the 
            D
plate at church
Send your prayers up and your roots 
      A
down deep
                                 Bm
Add a few limbs to your family tree
Watch their pencils marks, and the 
G
grass in the yard

All grow up
D
'Cause the truth about it is
A
It all goes by real quick
Bm                      G
And you can't buy happi-ness
                D
But you can buy dirt
