Intro: C x8

Verse 1:
C C
The farmer drove his tractor where the soil had been tilled
Em Em
planting corn in rank and file from the silo to the lumber mill
C C Em
he rode along in silence as looked out past the honeysuckle field
Em
watched the water turn turn the water wheel
C C Em
started thinking about his daughter with affection her reaction of disdain
Em
the day he replaced the blue hydrangea with the climbing grain
C C
while her disappointed sister looked on quiet as the snow
Em Em
knowing well that those that know don't talk and those that talk don't know
Chorus 1:
G
but she couldn't help but sing

she couldn't help but sing
Em
No, she couldn't help but sing
Em
she couldn't help but sing
G
She tried but she couldn't help but sing
G
she couldn't help but sing
Em
No, she couldn't help but sing
Em
she couldn't help but sing
Verse 2: (Repeat chords from Verse 1: C C Em Em)
the tortoise in the wheelchair wrapped his forehead in a bandage

with a cast they made from plaster for his phony broken leg

so he'd get pushed around the sidewalk by the zookeeper's assistant

with the hummingbird observing from behind the yellow flower

and he flapped his tiny wings they moved so fast you couldn't see them

with resentment for the tortoise which was clear by his expression

but the tortoise turned and smiled with a peacefulness which proved

that there's a movement in our stillness and however much we move
Chorus 2: (Repeat chords from Chorus 1: G G Em Em)
we're bound to stand completely still

we stand completely still

we all stand completely still

we stand completely still

Let's all stand completely still

Let's stand completely still

Let's all stand completely still

Let's stand completely still
