Cause the girls need milkin lest they go dry

He'd done it for 45 years so it was no suprise
Am G C
Til he walked outside to see his heart up in the sky
Am F C
It shined like a quarter in a babys hand
Am F C
On the fourth of july near the rio grande
Am F C
It shined like a diamond in a jar of sand
Am G C
And it made joes poor field look like it was born again

Am F C
Called for his wife who thought it was just some sort of joke
Am F C
Like when he called the preacher up cause the hens laid triple yokes
Am G C
But up in the sky was a heart that was taller than an oak
Am F C
Forty feet up and it was ten feet wide
Am F C
Was pumpin like a mad man swept up in a tide

And when his wife she came out from the inside
Am G C
She fell to her knees and she almost died
