   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 every day

  Bm                                   G                                   D
I think it kinda 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 the storm of mixed emotion 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]
               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
[Instrumental] Bm G D D [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]
               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

                    Bm                         G
You may change your mind, 'cause the weeds are high

                   D
Where corn don't grow
