High Cotton Acordes

	  (F) We didn't know the times were lean  
A-(Bb) Round our home the grass was green  
It (F) didn't seem like things were all that (C7) bad  
I (F) bet we walked a thousand miles  
(Bb) Chopin' cotton and pushin' plows  
And (F) learnin' how to (C7) give it all we (F) had.  
  
As life went on and years went by  
I saw the light in daddy's eyes  
And felt - the love in mama's hands  
They kept us warm and kept us fed  
Taught us how to look ahead  
Now lookin' back, I think I understand.  
  
Refrain:  
{P} We Were Walkin' in (F) High Cotton  
Old times (Bb) there are not forgotten  
Those (F) fertile fields are never far a-(C7) way  
{P} We Were Walkin' in (F) High Cotton  
Old times (Bb) there are not forgotten  
Leavin' (F) home was the hardest (C7) thing we ever (F) faced.  
  
When Sunday morning rolled around  
We dressed up in hand-me downs  
Just in time, together with the church  
Sometimes I think how long it's been  
And how it impressed me then  
It was the only day my daddy wouldn't work.
