BIDDING AMERICA GOODBYE (THE AUCTION)

Dear Mr. Johnson we're sorry to inform you
Your request for a second loan has been refused
And the board of directors up in the city
Has instructed us to take the farm from you

We understand your problems and wish that we could help you
But the falling price of wheat's not our concern
And the cost of operation may well be rising
But the fact is that you lose more than you earn

This Saturday morning there will be an auction
Underneath a cold gray country sky
And while the rest of the nation is still sleeping
They'll be bidding America Good-Bye

And so Mr. Johnson let us say in conclusion
That we know your family's worth that last four years
If we can be of assistance during your transition
Please don't hesitate to call us here.

This Saturday morning there will be an auction
Underneath a cold grey country sky
And while the rest of the nation is still sleeping
They'll be bidding America Good-Bye


Would like to have chord progression for this song. Seems it should be minor chords in places. Feel free to add lyrics if anyone knows the procedure
