E5                      C5     D5                  E5 
I've got a house and 90 acres some cattle in the barn 
E5               C5         D5                   E5 
Two kids with no mama, she left in a saleman's arms 
  C5           G5                       C5              G5 
A sign by the mailbox says there's an auction in the yard 
E5                  C5                  D5               E5 
Born and raised has been damn easy but lately living's hard 
 

E5                      C5                    D5             E5 
The children miss their mama but there ain't nothing I can do 
E5                      C5                    D5                  E5 
If she was all I had to worry about well I'd guess I'd miss her too 
         C5                    G5                C5              G5 
But I've watched my tools and tractor leave in someone else's hands 
E5               C5                    D5                C5 
I grit my teeth, I'm let 'em go but I won't give up my land 
 

G5                                 D5 
This house and 90 acres, the only place I've left to stand 
   E5                 C5              D5               C5 
My roots are anchored solid, I ain't machinery I'm a man 
G5                                D5 
I'll be here in the morning come pouring rain or sun 
     E5           C5 
This house and 90 acres 
       D5 
What's said is good as done

There's jobs up in the city I could probably drive a truck 
E5                  C5                   D5                    E5 
Or I could move 300 miles from home but that would be giving up 
         C5                 G5               C5               G5 
Well you know that I ain't leaving if it's just my pride I save 
E5                C5                      D5                C5 
I might be on the front porch or I might be in a hillside grave 
 

G5                                 D5 
This house and 90 acres, the only place I've left to stand 
   E5                 C5              D5               C5 
My roots are anchored solid, I ain't machinery I'm a man 
G5                                D5 
I'll be here in the morning come pouring rain or sun 
     E5           C5 
This house and 90 acres 
       D5 
What's said is good as done
