Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Me  and the farmer get  on fine
Through  stormy weather  and bottles of wine
 If I pull  my weight he'll treat  me well
But  I'f I'm late he'll  give me hell
And  though it's all hard work no play
Farmer  is a happy crook,
Jesus  hates him every day,
Cause  Jesus  gave and Farmer  took
Won't  he let you go probably  no
Won't  he let you go probably  no
Why  does he treat you so? I just  don't know
Why  does he treat you so? I just  don't know
Me  and the farmer like brother, like sister
Getting  on like hand and blister
Me  and the  farmer
 He's chopped down sheep, planted trees
 And helped the countryside to breathe
 Ripped up fields, bullied flocks
 And worked his workers right around the clock.
 It may seem strange but he'd admit
 Intentions aren't exactlt true
 And though God loves his wife a bit
 He hates the farmer through and through
 All things bright and beautiful
 All creatures great and small
 All we've got is London Zoo
 'cause farmer owns them all
