    Verse 1

    This year 

    in my 
    garden 
    I grow 
    pep
    pers 
    and toma
    toes, 

    Peppers 
    and toma
    toes, 

    they 
    grow together 
    well, 

    And my 
    neigh
    bours 
    all around 
    me 

    they grow 
    beans 
    and pota
    toes 

    Cabbages 
    and 
    onions 
    in this 
    vil

    lage where 
    we dwell
    . 

    Verse 2
    And later 
    in the 
    year 
    we will 

    bring wine 
    to the 
    table 

    Bring wine 
    to the table, 

    and reap 
    what we have 
    sown. 

    Like 
    my 
    father 
    did before 
    and his 

    father did 
    before 
    him 

    And his 
    father 
    did before 
    him, 

    we will 
    share 
    what we have 
    grown. 

    Verse 3

    This 
    little 
    patch of 
    dirt, 

    this 
    little pile 
    of stone
    s. 

    I can 
    wash the 
    dust from 

    off 
    my face, 
    and skin 

    But this 
    earth is 
    in my 
    bones. 

    Military 
    vehicles 
    are 
    Verse 4

    passing through 
    our village 

    Passing through 
    our village 

    with young 
    soldiers 
    ill 
    at ease. 

    Unsmil
    ing 
    and unshaven, 

    distrust
    ful 
    and uncer
    tain 

    Dis
    trustful 
    and uncer
    tain, 

    and all 
    smoking 
    constantly. 

    And 
    Verse 5
    my 
    neighbours say 
    "Don't 

    worry 
    for 
    you are 
    one of 
    us, 

    You are 
    one of 
    us 
    and it 

    will not 
    happen 
    here", 

    But 
    the 
    next night 
    at the 
    caf�, when I 

    bring wine 
    to the 
    table, 

    When I 
    bring wine 
    to the table, 

    but 
    they are 
    sit
    ting 
    drinking 
    beer
    . 

    Verse 6

    Last 
    night 
    the hand of 
    friendship 

    fell 
    heavy on 
    my 
    shoulders, 

    Heavy 
    on my 
    shoulders 
    as I 

    turned 
    away to 
    go. 

    As I 
    said goodnight 
    some 
    old men, 

    some 
    old men 
    and young 
    sol
    diers 

    Were 
    hum
    ming 
    tunes and 
    singing 
    words to song

    s 
    that I did not know. 

    Verse 7
    Oh this 
    little patch 
    of 
    dirt, 

    and 
    this 
    little 
    pile of 
    stones 

    I can 
    wash the 
    dust from off 

    my 
    face 
    and 
    skin, 

    But 
    this earth 
    is in my 
    bones. 

    Verse 8

    This morning 
    my wife 
    told me 
    that she'd 

    been 
    to church 
    on 
    Sunday, 

    Been to church 
    on 
    Sunday, 

    she had 
    felt the need 
    to 
    pray. 

    Our 
    children 
    were baptised 
    there 
    but it was 

    just to 
    please 
    the old 
    ones, 

    Just to please 
    the old 
    ones, 

    and I don't 
    know what 
    to say. 

    Interlude 1



    Verse 9
    Tonight, 
    as 
    dark is 
    falling, I 
    am 

    tending 
    to my 
    garden, 

    Tending 
    to my 
    garden, 

    and the 
    crop that 
    I have 
    grown. 

    And my 
    car is 
    heavy laden, 

    and soon 
    I'll start 
    the 
    en
    gine, 

    Soon I'll 
    start 
    the 
    engine, 

    wake the chil
    dren and 
    be gone. 

    Verse 10
    Oh this little patch 
    of dirt, and this 

    little pile of stones 

    I can 
    wash the dust from off my face 

    and skin 

    But this earth is in my bones. My 
    shotgun 
    it is loaded, 

    and it's 
    hid
    den in 
    the 
    cab
    in, 

    It's 
    hid
    den in 
    the 
    cab
    in, 

    and the 
    even
    ing's 
    growing chilled. 

    My 
    mouth is 
    dry, my hands 
    are moist, 

    and 
    if 
    someone 
    tries to 
    stop me, 

    Someone 
    tries to stop 
    me, 

    I am 
    ready now 
    to 
    kill. 

    Verse 11

    Oh this 
    little 
    patch of 
    dirt, and 

    this 
    little 
    pile of 
    stones 

    I can 
    wash 
    the dust from off 

    my face 
    and 
    skin 

    But this 
    earth 
    is in my 
    bones. 

    Interlude 2

    Verse 12
    I 
    am watering 
    my 
    garden, 
    when 
    I 

    smell 
    the cigarette 
    smoke, 

    Smell 
    the cigarette 
    smoke, 

    and I 
    turn round 
    in the dust 

    And I 
    see the 
    glint of rifles, 

    but 
    I 
    can
    not see 
    the 
    faces 

    But 
    I 
    recognise 
    the 
    voices 
    that say, 

    "Y
    ou must 
    come with 
    us".

      MaddProfessor

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      "

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
