When He Tore the Barn Down

Valley Park, Mo July 18, 2006
(D) The kid was so smart when he came home from (A) town
He thought he was helping, when he tore the barn (D)down
(D) Now at the home place theres (D7) not a thing (G) there
(A) Not even a shadow on the land so (D) bare
(D) For sixty-years, the old place had (A) stood
Braving harsh winters, best it (D) could
(D) Now the wind blows by (D7) not leaving a (G) trace
(A) Another memory gone from the old home (D) place
(D)Now the kid is an old man livin in (A)town
And regrets so much that he tore the barn (D) down
(D) He knows what he did (D7) was so very (G) wrong
(A) To show his sorrow, he wrote this (D) song.
(D) I am so sorry, I (A) tore the barn (D) down
