[Verse]
E                                 
■ Few days before he turned eighty
B                            A     
He was sitting 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
E                     A  
He poured this wisdom out
                                          E           
Said if you want my two cents on making a dollar count
E       
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
                                    E        
Send some prayers up and your roots down deep
                        E          
Add a few limbs to your family tree
                              A                        
And watch their pencils marks and the grass in the yard


[Chorus]
    E      
All grow up
                       E                              
'cause the truth about it is it all goes by real quick
                  A        
And you can't buy happiness
            E       
But you can buy dirt


[Verse]
                              E     
Before you get caught on that ladder
                              A    
Let me tell you what it's all about
A                                
Find you a few things that matter
                         E     
That you can put a fence around
    E                  
And then he laid it out
E       
Buy dirt
                       B           
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
                              E              
Send some prayers up and your roots down deep
                        E          
Add a few limbs to your family tree
                              A                        
And watch their pencils marks and the grass in the yard
         E 
All grow up
                       E                              
'cause the truth about it is it all goes by real quick


[Chorus]
              A        
You can't buy happiness
                E   
But you can buy dirt
        A       
You can buy dirt
    E                           
And ■ thank the good Lord for it
Bsus4                                
'cause He ain't makin' any more of it
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
                              E              
Send some prayers up and your roots down deep
                        E          
Add a few limbs to your family tree
                              A                        
And watch their pencils marks and the grass in the yard
    E      
All grow up
                       E                              
'cause the truth about it is it all goes by real quick
              A        
You can't buy happiness
            E       
But you can buy dirt


[Outro]
                 A
You can buy dirt ■
        E       
You can buy dirt
B         E        A
■ You can buy dirt ■
