/ G / / D - C / G
Hear the / tractor's steady / roar, oh you / can't stop / now,

There's / victory in / every quarter / mile. /

The / heartache, hail, and / hoppers brought him / down.

Emmet / Pierce, the other / day, /
/ Em / C / G
Took a / heart attack and / died at forty - / two.
/ G / D / / G
