Where Corn Don't Grow

Lyrics

Verse 1:
 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
