Version 1
            High Cotton
Reocorded by Alabama 
Written by Scott Anders &amp; Roger Murrah

G
We didn't know the times were lean
C
Around our home the grass was green
    G                                     D7                
It didn't seem like things were all that bad
   G
I bet we walked a thousand miles
C
Chopping cotton and pushing plows
G                   D7               G
And learning how to give it all we had

G
As life went on and years went by
C
I saw the light in daddy's eyes 
G                           D7
And felt the love in mama's hands
G
They kept us warm and kept us fed
 C                    G
Taught us how to look ahead
            D7      G        
Now looking back I understand

G
We Were Walking in High Cotton
           C
Old times there are not forgotten
      G                        D7
Those fertile fields are never far away     
G
We were walking in high cotton 
          C           
Old times there are not forgotten
         G                   D7             G
Leaving home was the hardest thing we ever faced

G
When Sunday morning rolled around
C
We dressed up in hand-me downs
        G                       D7
Just in time together with the church
G
Sometimes I think how long it's been
C
And how it impressed me then
     G                 D7             G
It was the only day my daddy wouldn't work

G
We Were Walking in High Cotton
           C
Old times there are not forgotten
      G                        D7
Those fertile fields are never far away
 G
We were walking in high cotton
          C           
Old times there are not forgotten
        G                    D7            G
Leaving home was the hardest thing we ever faced
