Chords

[Verse 1]
         C
There's nothin in the world that I like better

       F
Than bacon and lettuce and homegrown tomatoes

   G7
Up in the morning out in the garden

   C
Pick you a ripe one, don't get a hard 'un

    C
Plant em in the spring, eat em in the summer

     F
All winter without em's a culinary bummer

       G7
I  forget all about the sweatin and the diggin

       C
Every time I go out and pick me a big 'un
[Chorus]
    C
Homegrown tomatoes, homegrown tomatoes,

    F
What'd life be without homegrown tomatoes,

    G7
There's only two things that money can't buy:

       C
True love and homegrown tomatoes.
[Verse 2]
        C
You can go out and eat em, that's for sure

      F
But there's nothin a home grown tomato won't cure

     G7
Put em in a salad, put em in a stew

       C
You can make your own, your very own tomato juice

       C
You can eat em with eggs, you can eat em with gravy

       F
You can eat em with beans, pinto or navy

     G7
Put em on the side, put em in the middle

     C
Home grown tomatoes on a hot cake griddle
[Chorus]
    C
Homegrown tomatoes, homegrown tomatoes,

    F
What'd life be without homegrown tomatoes,

    G7
There's only two things that money can't buy:

       C
True love and homegrown tomatoes.
[Verse 3]
     C
If I could change this life I lead

    F
You could call me Johnny Tomatoseed

      G7
Cuz I know what this country needs

     C
It's home grown tomatoes in every yard you see.

     C
When I die don't bury me

     F
In a box in a cold dark cemetery

     G7
Out in the garden would be much better

     C
Where I could be a pushin' up the home grown tomatoes.
[Chorus]
    C
Homegrown tomatoes, homegrown tomatoes,

    F
What'd life be without homegrown tomatoes,

    G7
There's only two things that money can't buy:

       C
True love and homegrown tomatoes. (Repeat)
