[Verse]
F#m
I remember that summer
D
I was ten years old
A E
When our days ceased to shine
F#m
No, you could not take a breath
D
When those black blizzards came
A E
Strippin' land in dire need of rain
[Verse]
F#m
There was dirt on the floor
D
As mama swept all day long
A E
Leavin' trails of tears and mud down her face
F#m
There was dirt in our beds
D
And there was dirt in our clothes
A E
And there was dirt in the little that we ate
[Verse]
F#m
We had heard about the market's fall
D
A couple years before
A E
But the fields and the harvest all seemed fine
F#m
Sometimes the things that kill us
D
That which we don't know
A E
That strip the land of everything but pride
[Chorus]
A
Stay close together
F#m E E E E
That's all we knew to get by
A
I recall a helpless feelin'
F#m E
First time that I sa-aw my father cry
D A
Looking back on everything we had
E E E E
And on everything we lost
A F#m
Still makes me wonder
E E E E
Was staying wo-rth the cost
[Verse]
F#m
A lot of town folk up and left
D
They boarded up the schools and banks
A
And the churches
E
And that, to me, was wrong
F#m
Come next year, it would be better
D
For the last one standing tall
A E
For the ones - that showed the most resolve
[Verse]
F#m
They announced the New Deal
D
With the Conservation Act and then
A E
The Relief Fund - we were on our knees
F#m
There was little hope by then
D
So we just stood there in that line
A E
And we thanked the man for that little bit of cheese
[Chorus]
A
Stay close together
F#m E E E E
That's all we knew to get by
A
I recall a helpless feelin'
F#m E
First time that I sa-aw my father cry
D A
Looking back on everything we had
E E E E
And on everything we lost
A F#m
Still makes me wonder
E E E E
Was staying wo-rth the cost
