Capo on the 2nd fret.

Verse 1:
    C                                     F                                    C
    As we sat on the front porch of that old grey house where i was born and raised
       Am                                 F                           C
    Stared out at the dusty fields where daddy always worked hard eveyday
         Am                                     F                               C
    I think it kind of hurt him when i said "Daddy there's a lot that i don't know
         Am                           F                      C
    But don't you ever dream about a life where corn don't grow"


Verse 2:
     C                          F                            C
    He just sat there silent staring in his favorite coffee cup
            Am                              F                  C
    I saw a storm of mixed emotions in his eyes when he looked up
             Am                          F                                    C
    He said "Son i know at your age it feels like this ol' world is turning slow
             Am                             F                         C
    And you think you'll find the answer to it all,where corn don't grow"


Chorus:
 C                  Am                  F
    Hard times are real,there's dusty fields
                         C
    No matter where you go
                         Am                        F
    You may change your mind,'cause the weeds are high
                       C
    Where corn don't grow


Verse 3:
     C                               F                                   C
    I remember feeling guilty when daddy turned and walked back in the house
           Am                               F                               C
    I was only seventeen back then but it seems like i knew more than i do now
            Am                          F                        C
    I can't say he didn't tell me this city life's a hard row to hoe
          Am                          F                       C
    It's funny how a dream can turn around,where corn don't grow


Chorus.

 C                       Am                        F
    You may change your mind,'cause the weeds are high
                       C
    Where corn don't grow
