Get your brother too, we've got to get some work done. 
     D                            G                D

Back when times were good and times were bad

Verse 
    D                             G               D 
My Dad worked the farm for sixty years before he died 
                                               A 
And even before that day, I'd look at him and cry

Cause I knew he never had that much and probably never would 
    G            D               A             D 
But now I see he had more than a man now ever could
