G C Bm C
Baby I know that we've got trouble in the fields
G C D G Gsus4
When the bankers swarm like locust out there turning away our yield
G C Bm C
The trains roll by our silos, silver in the rain
G C D G Gsus4
They leave our pockets full of nothing but our dreams and the golden grain
G C Bm C
Have you seen the folks in line downtown at the station
G C D G Gsus4
They're all buying their tickets out and talking the great depression
G C Bm C
Our parents had their hard times fifty years ago
G C D G
When they stood out in these empty fields in dust as deep as snow
G C D
And all this trouble in our fields
G G/B C
If this rain can fall, these wounds can heal
D G Gsus4
They'll never take our native soil
G C D
But if we sell that new John Deere
G G/B C
And then we'll work these crops with sweat and tears
G Am7
You'll be the mule I'll be the plow
Bm7 C
Come harvest time we'll work it out
Am7 D G Am7Bm7C
There's still a lotta love, here in these troubled fields
G Am7
You'll be the mule I'll be the plow
Bm C
Come harvest time we'll work it out
Am7 D G
There's still a lotta love, here in these troubled fields
