-Matt
He's a [F]cold beer drinker, a [C]buck n' deer hunter:
The [Bb]best friend a dog ever [C]had.
A [F]post-hole-digger, a [C]mint Skoal dipper,
[Bb]John Deere cap-sportin' [C]man.
With a [F]house on a hill and a [C]pond in the field,
[Bb]Surrounded by a mess of corn [C]rows.
Makes a [F]livin' from his labor, a [C]credit to the Maker,
[Bb]He's somebody [C]everybody knows.
Chorus:
[C]Last of a dying breed who [Bb]tend the fields and [C]mend the fences.
[C]Heaven knows, I'd hate to think that [Bb]generation [C]might be ending,
[Bb]But if he goes, he will go [F]down in [Bb]history:
As the [C]last, the last of the:
[F]Overall wearers, [C]farmer tan tearers,
[Bb]Down at the BFW [C]hall. (Yall)
[F]Cake pan lickers, [C]ripe tomato pickers,
Hay [Bb]balers loadin' trailers in the [C]Fall.
[F]Fruit stand sellers, [C]town square dwellers,
Who [Bb]gather at The Dairy Queen at [C]dawn.
[F]Everybody knows him an' [C]everybody loves him:
[Bb]God, I'm gonna miss him if they're gone.
[C]Last of a dying breed who [Bb]tend the fields and [C]mend the fences.
[C]Heaven knows, I'd hate to think that [Bb]generation[C] might be ending,
[Bb]But if he goes, he will go [F]down in [Bb]history:
As the [C]last, the last of a dying [Bb]breed.
[C](Last of a dying breed.)
He's a hard-working family man.
(Last of a dying breed.)
[C]Last of a dying breed who [Bb]tend the fields and [C]mend the fences.
[C]Heaven knows, I'd hate to think that [Bb]generation [C]might be ending,
But [Bb]if he goes, he will go [F]down in [Bb]history:
As the [C]last, the last of a dying [Bb]breed.
Of a dying breed.
Of a dying breed.
