Here is a closer chord progression to my ear.
Half-step down tuning (Eb, Ab, Db, Gb, Bb, Eb)
INTRO:
G D X2
VERSE 1:
Well I heGard he needed some helCp on the farm
Somebody Dwith a truck and two sCtrong arms
Not scaredG of dirt and willinD' to work
till the Csun goes downD
So I pulleGd up and said I'm your man
I could staDrt right now and we shook hands
He said tGhe fence needs fixin',
the peDaches need pickin'
And thCe cows need bringin rounDd
CHORUS 1:
I was hauGlin' hay, I was feediDn' the hogs
and that Gsummer sun had me sweatiDn' like a dog
So I coAmoled off in the creek
then iGt was back to work in the daDg gum heat
I wasG cussin' out loud, thinkiDn' bout quitin'
LookGin' back now I'm surDe glad I didn't
Cuz jAmust when i thought it coCadd9uldn't get no hotter
I caught glimCpse of the farmer's daugDhter
VERSE 2:
She was jGust gettin' home from PaCnama city
She was alDl tanned up and my Ckinda pretty
When heGr eyes met mine
I wasD thinkin' that I would sure lCove my job
As the daGys got shorter our talks Cgot longer
The kisDses got sweeter and theC feelings got stronger
So we'dG hop in the truck and getD all tangled up
Every Cchance we got
CHORUS 2:
We were Gdown by the river all night long
When the suDn came up I was sneakin' her home
And draggAmin' my butt to work
With the smCell of her perfume on myD shirt
I'd be onG the tractor she'd be on my mind
With thaDt sun beatin' down on this back of mine
JusAmt when I thought it couldn't gCadd9et no hotter
I fCell in love with the farmeDr's daughter
BRIDGE:
WeAm got married last sprDing
AmWoah and there ain't no better life for meD
CHORUS/OUTRO:
Im still Ghaulin' hay and feedin' the hogs
And that Dsummer suns has me sweatin' like a dog
So I coAmol off in the creek
And she brCings me outta glass of sweeDt ice tea
Im on Gthe tractor and shes on my mind
And I Dcant wait til its quittin' time
And jAmust when I think itCadd9 cant get no hotter
I Ccome home to the farDmer's daughter
G D
Yeah tDhe farmer's dauGghter
Suggestions welcome.
