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