Old Macdonald Had A Farm by Isaac May
Old Macdonald Had A Farm
Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:4th fret
[Verse 1]
G Cadd9
Old MacDonald had a wife and child
Cadd9 G
Wife's dead and gone, he's a grandpa now
G Cadd9
Time'll take take a toll on a farmer's mind
Cadd9 G
So they put him in a home to live out his time
G Cadd9
Every now and then the preschool stops by
Cadd9 G
To sing a little tune to help them old folks get by
G Cadd9
He only seems to listen on his favorite song
Cadd9 G
And everytime he hears it he sings along
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G Cadd9 G
Old MacDonald, he had a farm
Cadd9 Em7
Until time ticked away they took away his barn
Cadd9 G Cadd9 G
And on this farm, he had it all
Cadd9 Dsus4 G
Now he's sitting in a wheelchair waiting for the call
[Verse 2]
G Cadd9
Grandson took him by the old home place
Cadd9 G
But those weren't tears of joy running down his face
G Cadd9
The highway's running through the old cornfield
Cadd9 G
Where he used to pick corn for every meal
G Cadd9
That John Deere tractor that was sitting by the barn
Cadd9 G
Has been replaced by a Walmart and a new sports bar
G Cadd9
And the old country house is still sittin' there
Cadd9 Cadd9
With a "For Sale" sign and an old rocking chair
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G Cadd9 G
Old MacDonald, he had a farm
Cadd9 Em7
Until time ticked away they took away his barn
Cadd9 G Cadd9 G
And on this farm, he had it all
Cadd9 Dsus4 G
Now he's sitting in a wheelchair waiting for the call
[Bridge]
Dsus4 Cadd9
Now that tractor only runs through his mind
Dsus4 Cadd9
By that old country store that sold Pepsi for a dime
Dsus4 D#dim
Back when the rooster crowed when the sun came 'round
Em7 Dsus4
And before the country became a town
Cadd9 D
Out on this old farm, old MacDonald's farm
[Verse 3]
G Cadd9
Six old friends and a cedar box
Cadd9 G
And the name MacDonald carved on a rock
G Cadd9
Load him in the hearse boys and take him back home
Cadd9 G
There's a six foot hole where the cattle used to roam
G Cadd9
Old MacDonald he's got a farm
[Outro]
