[Intro 1]
[G][G][C][Bb]
[G][G][C][Bb]
[G][G][C][Bb]
[G][G][C][Bb]

[Verse 1]
[G]They were farm kids way down in Dixie
[C]They met in high sch[G]ool in the sixties
Everyone knew it was love from the [D]start
[G]One July in the midnight hour
[C]He climbed upon the[G] water tower
Stood on the rail and [D]painted
a ten foot [C]heart[D]

[Chorus 1]
In [Em]John [D]Deere [C]green,
[G]on a hot[D] summer nig[C]ht
He wrote [Em]"Billy Bob [D]loves Char[C]lene"
[G]in letters thr[D]ee foot hig[C]h
[D]And the [Em]whole town said
that he [D]should've used red
But it [G]looked good to Char[C]lene
[D]In [Em]John [D]Deere

[Interlude 1]
[G](green)[G][C][Bb]
[G][G][C][Bb]

[Verse 2]
[G]They settled down on eighty acres
[C]Raising sweet cor[G]n, kids and tomatoes
They went together like a hand and a [D]glove
[G]On a clear day, from their front yard
[C]If you look and[G] know what to look for
Off to the east you can [D]still read
his words of [C]love[D]

[Chorus 2]
In [Em]John [D]Deere [C]green,
[G]on a hot[D] summer nig[C]ht
He wrote [Em]"Billy Bob [D]loves Char[C]lene"
[G]in letters thr[D]ee foot hig[C]h
[D]And the [Em]whole town said
the boy [D]should've used red
But it [G]looked good to Char[C]lene
[D]In [Em]John [D]Deere

[Interlude 2]
[G](green)[G][C][G]
[G][G][C][G]

[Bridge 1]
Now [D]more than once
the [G]town has discovered
Painting [C]over it ain't no [G]use
There [D]ain't no paint in the [G]world that'll cover it
The [C]heart keeps showing [D]through
[E]In

[Chorus 3]
[F#m]John D[E]eere g[D]reen,

[A]in letters thr[E]ee foot hig[D]h
[E]And the [F#m]whole town said
the boy [E]should've used red
But it [A]looked good to Char[D]lene
[E]In [F#m]John D[E]eere
