   E                        
As we sat on the front porch
        A                                   E     
Of that ole gray house where I was born and raised
    Dbm7                          
And stared out at the dusty fields
A                                      E  
Where daddy's always worked hard every day
Dbm7             Dbm                  A                                E   
I think it kinda hurt him when I said daddy there's a lot that I don't know
    Dbm                          A                     E    Bsus4 E
But don't you ever dream about a life where corn don't grow ■     ■
                         A                              E  
He just sat there silent staring in his favorite coffee cup
        Dbm                           A                   E 
I saw a storm of mixed emotion in his eyes when he looked up
        Dbm                       A                                    E   
He said son I know at your age it feels like this old world is turning slow
        Dbm                                A                    E   
And you think you'll find the answer to it all where corn don't grow


[Chorus]
                   Dbm                A                          E 
But hard times are real there's dusty fields no matter where you go
                    Dbm                      A                     E   
You may change your mind cause the weeds are high where corn don't grow

                               A                                   E    
I remember feeling guilty when daddy turned and walked back in the house
      Dbm                             A                             E     
I was only seventeen back then but it seems like I knew more than I do now
        Dbm                        A                         E  
I can't say he didn't tell me this city life's a hard row to hoe
Dbm7       Dbm                  A                       E   
It's funny how a dream can turn around where corn don't grow


[Chorus]
Dbm7 Dbm      A             
But  ■   hard times are real
E                   Dbm                      A                         
You may change your mind cause the weeds are high where corn don't grow
