Key: Bb major
Verse 1
when I was fifteen
C
G
and I'm bummed my way to the coast
Things out there were just as bad,
C
G
and the wind blows the topsoil to the sea
C
G
C
What's left is barren and green
C
G
behind the clouds
Hard jobs when the times got tight
C
G
The work faces me every morning
And the worry haunts
me all the night
C
G
What's left is buried in grave
G
TV
Poor folks can't afford enough to eat
While the grain rots in
storage and the price
The market has no worries
for what's right
C
G
C
G
What's left is barren and green
When I'm dead,
the kids will dump my ashes
Into the oil of our
Atlas 53
And I'll live just as long as that tractor
Will die when the rust
carries me to the sea
C
G
When the wind blows the topsoil to the sea,
C
G
what's left is barren and gray.
These crops have gone from green to brown
My hair's gone from brown to gray
And the sun will surely
shine upon his fields
And I will kneel to pray for rain today
C
G
What's left is barren and gray
You
