[Intro]
E5
E5 D9 A E5
[Verse 1]
E5
Four simple lines, four simple sides
D9 A
A simple square, but it’s all mine
E5
A couple trees, a little creek
D9 A E5
A place to live, a place to breathe
[Verse 2]
E5
It’s been there longer than me
D9 A
Longer than our little family
E5
Daddy gave it to me in his final breath
D9 A E5
An inheritance sealed by death
[Chorus]
A E5 G A
Man can do all kinds of things with his machines and hands
E5 A D9 E5
But no matter how hard he tries, he’ll never create land
[Solo]
E5 D9 A E5
E5 D9 A E5
[Verse 3]
E5
Granddad built his cabin there
D9 A
In the far corner of that square
E5
And that’s where I am today
D9 A E5
Livin’ life the simple way
[Chorus]
A E5 G A
Man can move all kinds of things with his machines and hands
E5 A D9 E5
But no matter how hard he tries, he’ll never create land
[Solo]
E5 D9 A E5
E5 D9 A E5
[Verse 4]
E5
Rest your legs, warm your eyes
D9 A
By the fire that burns inside
E5
When the time comes, my only son
D9 A E5
Pass this land on as I have done
[Chorus]
G E5 G A
Man can do all kinds of things with his machines and hands
E5 A D9 G
But no matter how hard he tries, he’ll never create land
