D                                     G                                    D
As we sat on the front porch of that old grey house where i was born and raised
   Bm                                 G                           D
Stared out at the dusty fields where daddy always worked hard eveyday
     Bm                                     G                               D
I think it kind of hurt him when i said "Daddy there's a lot that i don't know
     Bm                           G                      D
But don't you ever dream about a life where corn don't grow"


[Verse 2]
D                          G                            D
He just sat there silent staring in his favorite coffee cup
  Bm                              G                  D
I saw a storm of mixed emotions in his eyes when he looked up
         Bm                          G                                    D
He said "Son i know at your age it feels like this ol' world is turning slow
         Bm                             G                         D
And you think you'll find the answer to it all,where corn don't grow"


[Chorus]
 D                  Bm                  G
Hard times are real,there's dusty fields
                    D
No matter where you go
                    Bm                        G
You may change your mind,'cause the weeds are high
                   D
Where corn don't grow


[Verse 3]
 D                               G                                   D
I remember feeling guilty when daddy turned and walked back in the house
       Bm                               G                               D
I was only seventeen back then but it seems like i knew more than i do now
        Bm                          G                        D
I can't say he didn't tell me this city life's a hard row to hoe
      Bm                          G                       D
It's funny how a dream can turn around,where corn don't grow


[Chorus]
D                      Bm                        G
   You may change your mind,'cause the weeds are high
                   D
Where corn don't grow
