High Cotton [G] - Alabama

Verse 1:
[G] We didn't know the times were lean
[C] Around our home the grass was green
It [G] didn't seem like things were all that [D7] bad
I [G] bet we walked a thousand miles
[C] Chopping cotton and pushing plows
[G] And learning how to [D7] give it all we [G] had

Verse 2:
[G] As life went on and years went by
[C] I saw the light in daddy's eyes
[G] And felt the love in mama's [D7] hands
[G] They kept us warm and kept us fed
[C] Taught us how to look [G] ahead
Now looking [D7] back I [G] understand

Verse 3:
[G] When Sunday morning rolled around
[C] We dressed up in hand-me downs
Just in [G] time together with the [D7] church
[G] Sometimes I think how long it's been
[C] And how it impressed me then
It [G] was the only day my [D7] daddy wouldn't [G] work
