Tiny Broken Heart

NB: You can also play this tab with a capo on the second fret if you wish 
    (as it is played on the Live DVD) changing the chords from: 
    A->G, D->C and E->D. However, those without a capo, and those wishing 
    to obtain a fuller sound for the chords may prefer to play it this way. 
    Thanks to Scott for pointing out the capo position. 
 
Intro: A | D | A | E | A | D | A | E | A 
 
A                                 D 
He was just a little farm lad, so busy at play 
         A                            E 
With his little play mate outside the gate.  
         A                                 D 
Well, he stopped to watch a truck that was parking next door 
       A           E         A 
At the home of his tiny play mate.  
 
E                              A 
Then he saw his Daddy watchin' too  
                          D               E 
As the men swiftly walked to the Carter's door. 
   A                             D 
He knew they were strangers that came from the town, 
A          E            A 
Men he had never seen before. 
 
Fiddle solo: A | D | A | E | A | D | A | E | A 
 
A                              D 
They soon went to work when he heard his Daddy say 
     A                     E 
"Our neighbours are moving today." 
 A                       D 
"Oh no!" he cried, "dear God, don't let it be! 
     A             E          A 
They can't take my sweetheart away!" 
 
 E                         A 
"I know Dad you don't understand 
                     D                E 
How a heart so young could conceive a plan. 
    A                        D 
I'm only seven now, but it's just like you say, 
A           E             A 
Daddy, some day I'll be a man." 
 
Dobro solo: A | D | A | E | A | D | A | E | A 
 
 A                                    D 
"The man who owns the farm where your play mates do live, 
   A                            E 
He told me it'd have to be this way. 
    A                             D 
For winter time has come, and the work is all done, 
       A            E        A 
That's why they are moving today." 
 
 E                               A 
"Let us buy the farm so they can stay! 
                          D               E 
And give him all the toys that dear Santa gave! 
    A                             D 
And give him all my pennies in my little piggy bank! 
A               E                 A 
Pennies that my darlin' helped me save." 
 
Outro: A | D | A | E | A
