Verse 1

G

Well I’d hate to see the farmer

C G

Was the last of a dying breed

Em

Living off the land

D G

And taking what he needs

Don't say much for the future

C G

When a family can't survive

Em

I'd hate to say the farmer

D G

Was the last of his kind.

Verse 2

G

In the struggle for parity

C G

Not one man's voice can sound

Em

Cause the foundation

D

of the conglomerate

C G

Is firmly in the ground.

Yeah, they want to feed the world

C G

But for power and for greed

Em

Then they'll cut off the supply

D G

Until they get what they need.

Verse 3

G

Well I dreamed I saw a dust bowl

C G

Where the farmers used to live

Earth was flying through the sky

It had nothing left to give

Tractors were burning

C G

On the Whitehouse lawn

Em

Just woke up one morning

D G

And the farmers all were gone

Verse 4

G

I hate to say the farmer

Was the last of a dying breed

Living off the land

And taking what he needs.

Don't say much for the future

When a family can't survive.

I'd hate to say the farmer

Was the last of his kind.

Don't say much for the future

C G

When a family can't survive.

I'd hate to say the farmer

Was the last of his kind
