           C               D-              F
I've got mud on my shoes and a pain in my back,
       G                                          C
Sore feet and a heartache that won't quit.
            C               D-            F
I've got holes in my shirt, and socks that don't match.
         G                          C
I feel heavy and tired and worn.


C                 D-                   F
I used to be happy, with the life that I had,
G                                         C
Everything's gone since you've gone.
C                    D-          F
A country boy’s life, without his dear wife,
            G                           C
Is like a drought without any rain.


BREAK

        C                    D-                      F
Your friends, they all miss you and the children do too,
G                          C
Missing is all that I do.
           C                 D-              F
At your graveside we pray, in the sun and the rain,
         G                              C
Going home with mud on our shoes.


            C               D-             F
With an ache in our hearts, and mem'ries of you,
   G                         C
I fear we are falling apart.
             C                 D-              F
‘Cause a farm family's life, with no mother or wife,
            G                           C
Is like a drought without any rain.

           C               D-              F
I've got mud on my shoes and a pain in my back,
       G                                          C
Sore feet and a heartache that won't quit.
            C               D-            F
I've got holes in my shirt, and socks that don't match.
         G                          C
I feel heavy and tired and worn.
