    Verse 1
    Watch 
    the field 

    behind 
    the 
    plow 
    turn 
    to 
    straight, 
    dark 
    rows 

    Feel 
    the 
    trickle 
    in 
    your 
    clothes, 

    blow 
    the 
    dust 
    cake 
    from 
    your 
    nose 

    Hear 
    the 
    tractor's steady 
    roar, 

    Oh 
    you can't 
    stop 
    now 

    There's 
    quarter 
    sec
    tion 

    more 
    or 
    less 
    to 
    go 

    And 
    it 
    figures 
    that 
    the rain 
    keeps 

    its 
    own 
    sweet 
    time 

    You 
    can 
    watch 
    it 
    come 
    for 
    miles, 

    but 
    you 
    guess 
    you've 
    got 
    a while 

    So 
    ease 
    the throttle 
    out 
    hair, 

    every 
    rod's 
    gain 

    And 
    there's 
    victory 
    in 

    every 
    quarter 
    mile 

    Verse 2

    Poor 
    old 
    Kuzyk down 
    the road 

    The 
    heartache, 

    hail 
    and 
    hoppers 
    brought 
    him 
    down 

    He 
    gave 
    it 
    up 
    and 
    went 
    to 
    town 

    And 
    Emmett 
    Pierce 
    the 
    other 
    day 

    Took 
    heart 
    attack 
    and 

    died 
    at forty 
    two 

    You could 
    see 
    it 
    com
    ing 
    on 
    'cause 

    he 
    worked 
    as 
    hard 
    as 
    you 

    Verse 3

    In 
    an 
    hour, 
    may
    be 
    more, 

    you'll 
    be 
    wet 
    clear 
    through 

    The 
    air 
    is 
    cooler 
    now, 

    pull 
    you 
    hat 
    brim 
    further 
    down 

    And 
    watch 
    the 
    field 
    be
    hind 
    the plow 

    turn 
    to 
    straight 
    dark 
    rows 

    Put 
    an
    other 
    season's 
    promise 
    in 
    the 
    ground 

    Interlude 1



    Verse 4
    And 
    if 
    the 
    harvest's 
    any 
    good 

    The money 
    just 
    might 
    cover 

    all 
    the 
    loans 

    You've 
    mortgaged 
    all 
    you 
    own 

    Buy 
    the kids 
    a winter 
    coat 

    Take 
    the wife 
    back 
    east 
    for 

    Christmas 
    if 
    you 
    can

    All 
    summer 
    she 
    hang
    on 
    when 

    you're so 
    tied 
    to 
    the 
    land 

    Verse 5

    For 
    the good 
    times 
    come 
    and 
    go, 

    but 
    at 
    least 
    there's 
    rain 

    So 
    this 
    won't 
    be 
    barren 
    ground 

    when 
    Septem
    ber 
    rolls 
    around 

    So 
    watch 
    the field 
    be
    hind 
    the 

    plow 
    turn 
    to 
    straight 
    dark 
    rows 

    Put 
    an
    other 
    season's 

    promise 
    in 
    the ground 

    Watch 
    the field 
    be
    hind 
    the plow 

    turn 
    to 
    straight 
    dark 
    rows 

    Put 
    an
    other 
    season's 
    promise 

    Outro 1
    in 
    the 
    ground

    • Best Tuning App Ever

      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

      Rose the Black Cat

      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 🙂

    • Secret weapon

      Brad

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

    • Very reliable tuner

      theNewPaul

      This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

    • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      Caleb Schafli

      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.

    • Great to tune and play

      Lynae T

      I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
