Buy Dirt Chords by Jordan Davis

[Verse]
E                                   
■ A few days before he turned eighty
               B             A     
He was sittin' out back in a rocker
                            A     
He said What you been up to lately
                     E     
I told him Chasing a dollar
                       B     
And in between sips of coffee
                      A  
He poured this wisdom out
                              A                       
Said If you want my two cents on making a dollar count


[Chorus]
E       
Buy dirt
                       B           
Find the one you can't live without
                    C#m7               
Get a ring let your knee hit the ground
C#m                  A           
Do what you love but call it work
Amaj7                           E              
And throw a little money in the plate at church
                              B              
Send your prayers up and your roots down deep
                        C#m7       
Add a few limbs to your family tree
    C#m7                    
And watch their pencil marks
    A                Amaj7    E      
And the grass in the yard all grow up
                       B    
'cause the truth about it is
Bsus4  B            C#m7 
It all goes by real quick
              A         Amaj7
You can't buy happiness ■    
            E       
But you can buy dirt
                              B     
Before you get caught on that ladder


[Verse]
                              E    
Let me tell you what it's all about
A                                
Find you a few things that matter
A                              
That you can put a fence around
    A                  
And then he laid it out


[Chorus]
E       
Buy dirt
                       B           
Find the one you can't live without
                         C#m7          
Get a ring let your knee hit the ground
                     A           
Do what you love but call it work
                                E              
And throw a little money in the plate at church
                              B              
Send your prayers up and your roots down deep
                            C#m7       
And add a few limbs to your family tree
          C#m7              
And watch their pencil marks
    Amaj7 A                     E      
And the   grass in the yard all grow up
                       B    
'cause the truth about it is
                    C#m7 
It all goes by real quick
              A        
You can't buy happiness
            C#m     
But you can buy dirt
    B   E B C#m A    E
You can ■ ■ buy dirt ■
B                               
■ And thank the good Lord for it
                           Bsus4      B
'cause He ain't makin' any more of it ■
   E       
So buy dirt
E                                  
Find the one you can't live without
E                                      
Get a ring let your knee hit the ground
                     A           
Do what you love but call it work
                                E              
And throw a little money in the plate at church
                                    B        
Send your prayers up and your roots down deep
                        C#m7       
Add a few limbs to your family tree
          C#m7              
And watch their pencil marks
A                                    
And the grass in the yard all grow up
           E           B    
'cause the truth about it is
                    C#m7 
It all goes by real quick
              A        
You can't buy happiness
                E   
But you can buy dirt
