Verse 1
C
Maybe I know that
Bm
C
we've got trouble in the fields
G
When the bankers swarm
C
like locusts out there
D
G
And turnin' away our yields
C
The trains roll by our side,
Bm
C
the silver in the rain
G
C
They leave our pockets full of nothing
D
G
but our dreams and the golden grain
C
Have you seen the folks in line
Bm
C
downtown at the station?
G
C
They're all buying their ticket out
D
G
and talking the Great Depression
C
Our parents had their hard times
Bm
C
fifty years ago
G
C
But they stood out in these empty fields
D
G
Dsus4
in dust as deep as snow
G
C
D
And all this trouble in our fields,
G
if this rain can't thaw,
C
these wounds can heal.
D
G
They'll never take our native soil.
C
D
But if we sell that new -drawn deer,
G
then we'll work these cows
C
to sweat and tears.
You'll be the mule,
G
Am
I'll be the plow
We'll harvest time,
Bm
C
we'll work it out
Am
There's still a lot of love
D
G
D
Here in these troubled fields
G

D
G
C
There's a book up on the shelf
Bm
C
about the Dust Bowl days
G
And there's a little bit of you
C
and a little bit of me
D
G
In the photos on every page
C
Our children live in the city
G
C
and they rest upon our shoulders
G
C
They never want the rain to fall
D
G
or the weather to get cold
C
D
And all this trouble in our fields,
G
if this rain can't thaw,
C
these roots can heal.
D
G
They'll never take our native soil.
C
D
But if we sell that new -drawn deer,
G
then we'll work these cobs
C
with sweat and tears.
G
You'll be the mule, I'll be the plow
Am
Come harvest time,
Bm
C
we'll work it out
Am
There's still a lot of love
D
G
Here in these troubled fields
You'll be the mule, I'll be the plow
Am
Come harvest time,
Bm
C
we'll work it out
Am
There's still a lot of love
D
G
Here in these troubled fields you
