Augie March - Farmer's Son

Capo 2
Standard tuning

INTRO

G-Bm-Am-D

VERSE

Am D
I didn't know you, I never knew you,

C G
Now I'm never gonna see you again.

Am D
An acquaintance all my childhood years

C G
I could never call you a friend.

Am C
I was afraid that I might become you,

Am Am
I was afraid you might appear

Am D
As a weight upon my chest at night

C G
And a whisper in my ear.

CHORUS

G Bm
O the watershed I built

Am D
And wept enough that I could fill it,

G Bm
So the ground beneath my feet would yield

Am D
Enough that I could heal it.

Am D
I'm gonna get it back, gonna get better,

Am D
Gonna get it fixed, gonna burn that letter,

D D
I don't know what's coming but I'll take it,

G
Whatever now.

For I was born to another vocation,

I was born in another era,

I wasn't born that I should live my life

Beneath your failure and fear.

Every night the storm grew closer,

Every day the fire drew near,

When they'd meet upon this acre

And I prayed it'd up and disappear.

CHORUS

You didn't know it, you didn't see me,

As you went about your work.
