            D                           
I can chop wood   from dusk till dawn 
D                                                   
I can swing a hammer     till the daylight's gone 
D                                                             
I can build a barn   I can make a home with these two hands 
                      F   Dm7   G                 D    
But if I didn't have all your love I'd be half a man 
            D                                  
I can fly plane    up in the big blue sky 
D                                                             
Blaze a trail through the woods    in my four-wheel drive 
D                                                                  
With a team of horses or an old John Deere I can plow this land 
                      F   Dm7  G                  D  
But if I didn't have all your love I'd be half a man 
 

                       G                   F 
      I can hang the stars I can rope the moon 
       F                                  D 
      Walk across Te as in these cowboy boots 
                    G                        F 
      I can run a train when it runs outta track 
       F                                           D 
      With the weight of the world laid across my back 
              D            G                  F     
      But my life still wouldn't be worth a damn 
                        F   Dm7  G                  D   
      If I didn't have all your love I'd be half a man 

       ENDING:        
         I'd be half a man 
 
 
D                                                    
I could build a fire    usin' nothin' but a stick 
D                                                          
If I put my mind to it    there ain't much I can't fi  
D                                                                                 
I can read and count   I can figure things out if you'd give me a chance 
                      F   Dm7   G                 D  
But if I didn't have all your love I'd be half a man
