Verse 1
Em
The real estate man came around today
D
Must have heard I was in town
D
For Grandads estate
A Em
And he parked his Benz under the old birch tree
Em
He said, "Name your price, man I'll get you a deal"
D
But not a word 'bout my grandad, not a word that was real
A Em
I guess he figured those forty acres didn't mean much to me
D A
So I sat him down and I set him straight
Chorus
Em
Don't show up in your suit trying to spend your money
D
Thinking you can buy whatever you're wantin'
A Em
There's memories here that can't be bought and sold
Em
Don't show up and say that you've got what I'm needing

You'll never get your hands on this home
D A Em
This dirt's worth its weight in gold
Verse 2
Em
You come inside I got somethings to show you
D
These frames on the wall, they ain't just photos
A Em
Every picture here's got a story to tell
Em
That little boy on the tractor, yeh that's me
D
Helping dad sow the paddock back in '93
A Em
We had our struggles but that was one hell of a year
Em
That one of grandad planting that seed
D
Now it's that big, old birch that you parked underneath
A
I hope you take a good look when you're driving on out of here

I grab a handful dirt in my fist
