24 acres of Indiana farmland, A Airstream trailer,
Livin' in the [E] heartland, A little ways west,
Of where the [B] day is born, I put 200,000 miles on this,
Japanese car, Mechanic says it's dying,
Now don't take it [F#] very far, [E] But I'd love to go out driving,
Watch the sun melt [B] on the corner, [F#] We're living in the heartland,
[B] Somewhere between the mountains and the shore,
But the school kids are learning about Christopher Columbus,
[F#] The names of all his ships, And how to use a compass,
[E] And I wish that it could stop there, I wish there was a way to [B] keep them young,
When I think about him now, He must have been all shaky handed,
Delusions of grandeur, And lines in the sand,
[E] And a look in his eye, Of a man who has been at sea [B] too long,
[F#] Trying to find his place, [E] And afraid to admit he might [B] be wrong,
[E] And isn't what I don't know, Makes this living easier,
[G#m] The more I learn, The more it brings me to my knees,
And I [B] say please, [F#] Let me back [E] inside the garden,
I [F#] won't eat anything [E] that's fallen from that god [B] damn tree,
Twenty-four acres of Indiana farmland, Used to be a hundred,
But grandpa lost the card [E] game, And we moved back here from Boston,
Cause I lost my job, And this is where [B] I'm from,
And the kids seem pretty happy, They don't miss their dad too much,
I can't answer all their questions, But they never [D#] lack for love,
And [E] that's what I tell my mother when she calls,
Don't you worry [B] about us, Cause [F#] we're living in the heartland,
[E] And we're learning how to let that [B] be enough,
[E] And isn't what I don't know, Makes this living easier,
[G#m] The more I learn, The more it brings me to my knees,
And [B] I say please, [F#] Let me back [E] inside the garden,

[B] Don't keep a TV, Cause news is always fast,
And it teaches us to want all the things we'll never have,
[E] And there's always someone getting hurt, Someone else was feeling [B] too let down,
One of these nights I'm gonna go out to the crossroads,
I'll see who's buying, And I'll tell him just to go on [E] home,
I'll look him in the eye and say, You don't scare [B] me now,
Not [F#] since the bottle took my baby, [E] And the banker took [B] my house,
And [F#] we're living in the heartland, [E] Surely somewhere here's where the [B] heart is found,
[E] And isn't what I don't know, Makes this living easier,
[G#m] The more I learn, The more it brings me to my knees,
And I [B] say please, [F#] Let me back [E] inside the garden,
I [F#] won't eat anything [E] that's fallen
[F#] [E] from that god damn tree,
God [B] damn tree.
