Intro:  DGDAD
 
(D)Tonight there'll be (G)candlelight and (D)roses

In this little country chapel that's almost falling (A7)down

There'll be (D)tears in this old (G)farmer's eyes this (D)evening

When I (E)give my one possession to that (A)city boy from town

His (D)hair is a little (G)longer than we're (D)use to

But, I guess I should find something good to (G)say

About this man whose won the farmer's (D)daughter

And will (A7)soon become my son-in-law (D)today

(G)Mama left eight years ago (D)December

And it was (A7)hard to be a Dad and Mama (D)too

But, some(G)how we made home of this old (D)farmhouse

And (E)love was all my baby ever (A)knew

*(D)He could be the (G)richest man in seven (D)counties

And not be good enough to take her (G)hand

But, he says he really loves the farmer's (D)daughter

And I (A7)know the farmer's daughter loves the (D)man

Ending same as intro.
