[Verse 1]
G There's a little white note
G on the gate by the road
C C/G C C/G G that a man put up yesterday
G And when we saw it,
G we all ran out
A D/F# just to see what it had to say.
G And when we read it,
G our eyes filled with tears,
C C/G C C/G G and they fell to the cold, hard clay
G Something about a mortgage,
G something about foreclosure,
G D G something about failing to pay. [Chorus]
G Oh, and on the post by the
G general store,
C C/G C C/G G they put up a little sign
G An auction sale
G day after tomorrow
A D/F# D D/F# at the end of the Lincoln Line
G Thirty years of farming,
G thirty years of heartache,
C C/G C C/G G thirty years of day to day
G Oh, my daddy stopped talking
G the day the farm was auctioned,
G D G there was nothing left to say. [Verse 2]
G Oh, my mama's tears fell
G freely down
C C/G C C/G G as she walked amongst the flowers in the yard
G And every number
G the auctioneer called
A D/F# was like a blow to her precious heart
G And every number
G the auctioneer called
C C/G C C/G G meant another thing was sold that day
G 'Til everything was auctioned,
G and we stood there watching
G D G as they loaded it and drove it away. [Chorus]
G Oh, and on the post by the
G general store,
C C/G C C/G G they put up a little sign
G An auction sale
G day after tomorrow
A D/F# at the end of the Lincoln Line
G Thirty years of farming,
G thirty years of heartache,
C C/G C C/G G thirty years of day to day
G Oh, my daddy stopped talking
G the day the farm was auctioned,
G D G there was nothing left to say. [Instrumental]

G At the day's first dawning,
G we awoke this morning,
C C/G C C/G G there was nothing for us to do,
G Nothing in the granary,
G no hay in the mow,
A D/F# no cattle, no tractor, no tools.
G So we loaded up the car,
G took the clothes that we wore
C C/G C C/G G and a few things we managed to save.
G Mama read from the Book,
G we took one last look,
G D G and then we drove away. [Chorus]
G Oh, and on the post by the
G general store,
C C/G C C/G G they put up a little sign
G An auction sale
G day after tomorrow
A D/F# at the end of the Lincoln Line
G Thirty years of farming,
G thirty years of heartache,
C C/G C C/G G thirty years of day to day
G Oh, my daddy stopped talking
G the day the farm was auctioned,
G D G there was nothing left to say. [Outro]
G Oh, my daddy stopped talking
G the day the farm was auctioned,
G D G there was nothing left to say.
