We Don�t Grow Tobacco by Old Crow Medicine Show

Transcribed by DWdrummer67.

Note: The A to D and D to Dm transisions in the chorus aren't required.
I added those as a way to follow the vocal cues. They don't play them,
but I like the way it sounds. You can just play an A in the first part
and a D in the second. ENJOY!!

Tuning: Standard (capo 1st fret)

Intro: A, E, A

         A
Hardest work that ever I done, bent beneath that burning sun
                E               A
Hauling that tobacco �round to cure
          A
I would chop that wicked weed, till our hands and fingers bleed
                E           A
Working like a mule, maybe more
              D                           A
We've been farming on this land� since eighteen hundred ten
         F#m                   B           E
Through flood, drought and pestilence and war
       A
Now I sure am sad to say, that I�ve lived to see this day
                     E                    A
And we don't grow tobacco �round here no more

Chorus:
          A  D            A
We don't grow�, we don't grow
                                         E
Oh, it's still the only work we'll ever know
          D Dm            A
We don't grow�, we don't grow
                 E                    A
We don't grow tobacco �round here no more

         A
Grandpa told me this I know, change is comin�, won't be slow
                        E            A
Knocking just like a thunder at the door
            A
Plowed up fields are all around, empty barns just fallin� down
                   E                     A
Well, Iron weeds comin� up through the floor

           D                             A
Once we growed it by the pound, now the kids all moved to town
    F#m                    B         E
And all that's left are elderly and poor
       A
Now I sure am sad to say, that I�ve lived to see this day
                     E                    A
And we don't grow tobacco �round here no more

Chorus:
          A  D            A
We don't grow�, we don't grow
                                          E
Oh, it's still the only work we'll ever know
                D Dm             A
Well, we don't grow�., we don't grow
                 E                    A
We don't grow tobacco �round here no more

Break:
D, A, F#m, B, E

Whoooo!!!, yes I sure am sad to say, this way of life has gone away
                          E                    A
Now that we don't grow tobacco �round here no more
D     A                E                    A� E-A�
Well, we don't grow tobacco �round here no more
