Intro
G# G# G# C#
You know when I was about eight years old, used to go with my grandpa up to
C# D# D#
the town square, set him down up there on a picnic bench and he used to play
G# G# G# G# C# D#
checkers with them other old men up there. They used to tell stories bout when they were kids.
G# G# C# C# D# D# G#
Grandpa says he shot the chief of police, when he was nine years old. N' I believe him,
G# G# G# C# D#
cause they tell me that Hazard, Kentucky's the baldest place in the world. Why,
G# G#
they say they used to sit out there on their front porch, shoot then revenuers,
C# C# D# D#
when they'd come down the hollow. Said they was so young,
G# G# G# G#
took two o' them boys to hold the rifle and one to pull the trigger, hymn. Well, grandpa,
C# D# G# G# C# D# G#
he'd lie a little bit, but I'll tell you, there's a lot of stories in Harlan County.
[Verse 1]
G# C# G#
Yeah, folks in Harlan County Lord they knew that we were poor
D#
They always called my daddy preacher Dan
G# C# G#
But daddy weren't no preacher least ways I don't recollect
D# G#
Never hear of papa talk of nothin' but the land.
[Chorus 1]
C# D# G# C#
D#nd Daddy Was A God Fearin’ farmer yes he was
G# D#
Could not read nor write Lord he could barely sign his name
C# D# G# C#
Daddy Was D# God Fearin’ farmer all his life
G# D# G#
Someday when I’m grown I’ll be the same.
[Verse 2]
G# C# G#
Well he always grew tobacco though he did not smoke himself
D#
He had the best tobacco crop around
G# C# G#
And he never touched a drop of liquor that I can recall
D# G#
Papa made his livin' on the ground.
[Verse 3]
G# C# G#
Yes Sunday-go-to-meetin' called for more than he could stand
D#
I guess he felt at home in his old clothes
G# C# G#
But he never missed a Sunday takin’ momma to the church
D# G#
Maybe it was habit, Lord but Heaven only knows.
[Chorus 2]
C# D# G# C#
D#nd Daddy Was A God Fearin’ farmer yes he was
G# D#
Could not read nor write Lord he could barely sign his name
C# D# G# C#
Daddy Was D# God Fearin’ farmer all his life
G# D# G#
Someday when I’m grown I’ll be the same.

Someday when I’m grown I’ll be the same.
