(verse 1) 
C                Am 
I could not repay in one lifetime 
Dm                G 
All the love you gave me 
C            Am 
You've become such a woman 
Dm                    G 
Still you let me call you baby 
F             G             C    Am 
I love you now and I always will 
F                    C          G                      C 
I would gladly be the fieldhand, if you were the field 
 
 
(verse 2, same chords) 
I'd take the rain - it makes us grow 
That's what you always told me 
I'd take the plow firm in my hand 
Just the way you hold me 
I'd cultivate the valley and the hill 
I would gladly be the fieldhand, if you were the field 
 
(bridge) 
Em                   Am 
I would sprinkle the morning dew 
F                          G 
When the lonely nights were thru 
Em             Am 
I would hang a harvest moon 
Dm                         G   F   C 
So its light would shine on you 
 
 
F               G                 C      Am 
To help you grow would truly be my will 
F                    C          G                      C 
I would gladly be the fieldhand, if you were the field 
F                    C          G                      F 
I would gladly be the fieldhand, if you were the field
