We Don’t Grow Tobacco by Old Crow Medicine Show
Transcribed by DWdrummer67.
Note: The A to D and D to Dm transisions in the chorus aren't required.
I added those as a way to follow the vocal cues. They don't play them,
but I like the way it sounds. You can just play an A in the first part
and a D in the second. ENJOY!!
Tuning: Standard (capo 1st fret)
Intro: A, E, A
Hardest wAork that ever I done, bent beneath that burning sun
Hauling that tobEacco ‘round toA cure
I would chAop that wicked weed, till our hands and fingers bleed
Working like a mEule, maybe mAore
We've been farDming on this land… since eAighteen hundred ten
Through fF#mlood, drought and pestBilence and wEar
Now I sAure am sad to say, that I’ve lived to see this day
And we don't grow tobEacco ‘round here noA more
Chorus:
We don't gArowD…, we don'tA grow
Oh, it's still the only work we'll ever kEnow
We don't gDroDmw…, we don'tA grow
We don't grow tobEacco ‘round here noA more
Grandpa tAold me this I know, change is comin’, won't be slow
Knocking just like a thuEnder at the dAoor
Plowed up fiAelds are all around, empty barns just fallin’ down
Well, Iron weeds coEmin’ up through the Afloor

Chorus:
We don't gArowD…, we don'tA grow
Oh, it's still the only work we'll ever knEow
Well, we don't gDroDmw…., we don'tA grow
We don't grow tobEacco ‘round here noA more
Break:
D, A, F#m, B, E
Whoooo!!!, yes I sAure am sad to say, this way of life has gone away
Now that we don't grow tobEacco ‘round here noA more

Well, we don't grow tobacco ‘round here no more
