Chord,Tablature, lyric, sheet, guitar, ukulele song: Matthew - ( [G]Had an uncle named [Am]Matthew [D7]Was his father's on...)

--
[G]Had an uncle named [Am]Matthew
[D7]Was his father's only[G] boy
[G]Born just south of Colby, [Am]Kansas
[D7]Was his mother's pride and[G] joy

[G]Yes, and joy was just the [C]thing that he was [Am]raised on
[D7]Love was just the way to live and [G]die
[G]Gold was just a [C]windy Kansas [Am]wheatfield
[D7]Blue was just a Kansas summer [G]sky

[G]All the stories that he [Am]told me
[D7]Back when I was just a [G]lad
[G]All the memories that he [Am]gave me
[D7]All the good times that he [G]had

[G]Growin up a Kansas [Am]farmboy
[D7]Life was mostly havin [G]fun
[G]Ridin' on his daddy's [Am]shoulders
[D7]Behind a mule beneath the [G]sun

[G]Yes, and joy was just the [C]thing that he was [Am]raised on
[D7]Love was just the way to live and [G]die
[G]Gold was just a [C]windy Kansas [Am]wheatfield
[D7]Blue was just a Kansas summer [G]sky

[G]Well, I guess there were some [Am]hard times
[D7]And I'm told some years were [G]lean
[G]They had a storm in [Am]'47
[D7]A twister came and stripped them [G]clean

[G]He lost the farm and lost his [Am]family
[D7]He lost the wheat and lost his [G]home
[G]But he found a family [Am]bible
[D7]Faith as solid as a [G]stone

[G]Yes, and joy was just the [C]thing that he was [Am]raised on
[D7]Love was just the way to live and [G]die
[G]Gold was just a [C]windy Kansas [Am]wheatfield
[D7]Blue was just a Kansas summer [G]sky

[G]So he came to live at our [Am]house
[D7]And he came to work the [G]land
[G]He came to ease my daddy's [Am]burden
[D7]And he came to be my [G]friend

[G]So, I wrote this down for [Am]Matthew
[D7]And it's for him the song is [G]sung
[G]Ridin' on his daddy's [Am]shoulders
[D7]Behind a mule beneath the [G]sun

[G]Yes, and joy was just the [C]thing that he was [Am]raised on
[D7]Love was just the way to live and [G]die
[G]Gold was just a [C]windy Kansas [Am]wheatfield
[D7]Blue was just a Kansas summer [G]sky

[G]Yes, and joy was just the [C]thing that he was [Am]raised on
[D7]Love was just the way to live and [G]die
[G]Gold was just a [C]windy Kansas [Am]wheatfield
[D7]Blue was just a Kansas summer [G]sky
