[D]
Tonight [G] there'll be candlelight [D] and roses
In this little country chapel that's almost [Bm] falling [A]
down
[D] There'll be tears in this [G] old farmer's eyes [D] this evening
When [A] [E] I give my one possession [A] to that city boy from town
[D] His hair is a [G] little longer [D] than we're used to
But I guess I should find [Am] something [G] good to say
About this man who's one [D] farmer's daughter
[A] And will soon become my son-in-law [D]
today
[F#m] Mama [G]
left eight years ago [D]
December
And [A] it was hard to be a dad and mama [D]
too
But [G] somehow we made a home of this [D] old farmhouse
[E] And love was all [Em] my baby [E] [A] ever knew
He [D]
could be the richest [G] man in seven [D] counters
And not be good enough to take [G] her hand
But he says he really loves the [D] farmer's daughter
And [A] I know the farmer's daughter loves [D] the man
