[B] [E] [Em] [A]
[E]
As we sat on the front [A] porch of that old gray house where I was born [E] and raised
[C#m] He stared out at the dusty [A] beach where Daddy always worked [E] hard every day
I [C#m] think it kind of hurt him [F#m] when I [A] said, Daddy, there's a lot that I [E] don't know
But [C#m] don't you ever dream about [A] a life where corn don't [E] grow
He just sat there silent, [A] staring in his favorite [E] coffee cup
I [C#m] saw the storm of mixed emotion [A] in his eye
When [E] he looked up, [C#m] he said, Son, I know it's your [A] age
It feels like this old world is [E] turning slow
And [C#m] you think you'll find the answer [A] to it all
Where corn [E] don't grow
Hard [C#m] times are real, there's [A] dusty fields no matter [E] where you go
You may [C#m] change your mind, cause the [A] weeds are high where corn [E] don't grow
[C#m] I
[A] [E]
remember feeling guilty [F#m] when Daddy turned and walked [E] back in the house
[C#m] I was only seventeen back [A] then, but it seems like I knew more than [E] I do now
I [C#m] can't say he didn't tell me [A] this city life's a hard [E] road to go
It's [C#m] funny how a dream can [A] turn around where corn [E] don't grow
Hard [C#m] times are real, there's [A] dusty fields no matter [E] where you go
You may [C#m] change your mind, cause the [A] weeds are high where corn [E] don't grow
You [C#m] may change your mind, [A] cause the weeds are high [G] where [E] corn don't grow
