Hey guys, how's it going?
This week I'm going to be singing a country song.
It describes what it's like to grow up in the country.
[Gb] And it's just simply stated, it's just a great country song.
[Bb] And it has nothing to do with mama, trains, trucks, prison, or getting drunk.
It's just a simple country song.
And it's called Where Corn Don't Grow.
[Eb]
As we sat on the front [Ab] porch of that old grey house where I [Eb] was born and raised
[Cm] Staring at the dusty [Ab] fields where my daddy worked [Eb] hard every day
Well I think it kind of hurt him [Ab] when I said, Daddy, there's a lot that [Eb] I don't know
But [Cm] don't you ever dream [Ab] about a life [Bb] where corn [Eb] don't grow
He just sat there [Ab] silent, staring at his [Eb] favorite coffee cup
[Cm] It was a storm of mixed emotions [Ab] in his eyes when [Eb] he looked up
[Cm] He said, son, I know at your [Ab] age it seems like this old world is [Eb] turning slow
And [Cm] you think you'll find the answer [Ab] to it all, [Bb] when corn [Eb] don't grow
Hard [Cm] times are real, there's [Ab] dusty fields no matter [Eb] where you go
You might [Cm] change your mind, cause the [Ab] weeds are high, [Bb] where corn [Eb] don't grow
I remember the feeling gives [Ab] me, when daddy turned and walked back [Eb] in the house
[Cm] I was only seventeen back [Ab] then, but I thought that I knew
[Eb] And I know now, I [Cm] can't say you didn't warn me, [Ab] the city lies so hard a [Eb] road of hope
[Cm] Ain't it funny how a dream [Ab] can turn around, where [Eb] corn don't grow
Hard [Cm] times are real, there's [Ab] dusty fields no [Eb] matter where you go
You might [Cm] change your mind, [Ab] cause the weeds are high, [Bb] where corn [Eb] don't grow
You might [Cm] change your mind, oh the [Ab] weeds are high, [Bb] where corn [Eb] don't grow
