[Eb] [C]
[Dm] [C] He bought 300 acres, 10 miles south of town, [Dm] a drifter who decided [C] it was time to settle down.
There was no sea he had not sailed, or sky he had not flown, [D] and the only [G] place he had
never [F] been was a place he could [C] call his own.
He broke the soil and planted seed, but the land refused to yield, and [G] the loneliness
he felt at night was [C] the kind no man should feel, till a woman came into his life, a daughter
of the soil, [G] a bride that he could stand beside [F] and ease his [C] daily toil.
And [F] he called [G] his kingdom [C] Jason's farm.
[F] The land grew [G] rich and green [C] for King Jason and his [Bm] queen, [G] and the wind blew sweet each
night time [F] as they lay in each [C] of his arms, and [G] all things good grew on [C] Jason's [C] farm.
[Bb]
[A] [Dm] [C] When the summer sun had finally gone and the harvest time was near, [G] Jason's pretty [D] Mary
[C] whispered magic in his ears, and Jason's laughter filled the land and his soul began
to sing, and [G] he boasted of the sun his wife would [F] bear him in [C] the spring, and all [F] things
[G] good grew on [C] Jason's farm.
[F] The land beneath [G] the skies turned [C] as green as Mary's [C] eyes, [G] and he felt the child grow
strong in [F] Mary's womb against [C] his palm, and all [G] things good grew on [C] Jason's farm.
Now the Lord gives and he takes away, and to [G] all men this is true, and [C] most of us accept
it and we learn to live it through.
Now God gave a child to Jason, an extension of his [G] life, but in doing so [F] he traded the
[C] child for Jason's wife.
[G] [C] The crops are rotting in the field, the land left [Am] unattended, [G] and somewhere Jason roams
the [C] earth is wounded, hard, unmended.
The house is slowly falling in the dust of Jason's yard, [G] a monument to a man who shunned
[F] his child and [C] cursed his God.
And [F] nothing grows [G] no more on [C] Jason's farm.
[F] The land once rich [G] and green is dead [C] and dry like Jason's dream, [G] and the wind that once
blew sweet through [F] Mary's hair is [C] strangely calm, and [G] nothing grows [F] no more on [E] Jason's farm.
[C] [Eb] [C]
