John Deere Green
Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:no capo
[Verse 1]
G
They were farm kids way down in Dixie
C G
They met in high school in the sixties
D7
Everyone knew it was love from the start
G
One July in the midnight hour
C G
He climbed upon the water tower
D7 C D
Stood on the rail and painted a ten foot heart
[Chorus]
Em D C
In John Deere Green
G C
On a hot summer night
Em D C
He wrote Billy Bob loves Charlene
G 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
[Verse 2]
G
They settled down on eighty acres
C G
Raising sweet corn, kids and tomatoes
D7
They went together like a hand and a glove
G
On a clear day from their front yard
C G
If you're lookin, know what to look for
D7 C D
Off to the east you can still read his words of love
[Chorus]
Em D C
In John Deere Green
G C
On a hot summer night
Em D C
He wrote Billy Bob loves Charlene
G 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

D G
Now more then once the town has dicovered
C G
Painting over it ain't no use
D G
There ain't no paint in the world that'll cover it
C D D
The heart keeps showin' through
[Chorus]
Em D C
In John Deere Green

On a hot summer night

In letters three foot high
