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 
   Em   D     C 
In John Deere Green 
G    D           C 
On a hot summer night 
         Em        D         C 
He wrote Billy Bob loves Charlene 
G          D            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 
 
 
They settled down on eighty acres 
Raising sweet corn, kids and tomatoes 
They went together like a hand and a glove 
On a clear day from their front yard 
He you look and know what to look for 
Off to the east you can still read his words of love
