Trouble
In The Fields
transcribed
by Brooke
G
D
Em
C
Baby
I know that we've got trouble in the fields
G
C
D
G
When
the bankers swarm like locusts out there tearin away our yield
G
D
Em
C
The
trains roll by our silos silver in the rain
G
C
D
G
Leave
our pockets full of nothing but our dreams and the golden grain
Have
you seen the folks in line up down town at the station
They're
all buying their ticket out and talking a great depression
Our
parents had there hard times fifty years ago
When
they stood out in these empty fields in dust as deep as snow
Chorus
:
G
C
D
G
C
And
all this trouble in our fields if this rain can fall these wounds can
heal
C
D
G
They'll
never take our native soil
G
C
D
But
if we sell that new John Deere
D
G
C
then
we'll work these crops with sweat and tears
G
Am
You'll
be the Mule I'll be the plow
Bm
C
Come
harvest time we'll work it out
C
Am
There's
still a lot of love
D
G
Here
in these troubled fields
There's
a book up on the shelf about those dust bowl days
There's
a little bit of you and a little bit of me
In
the photos on every page
Now
our children work (live?) in the city and they rest upon our shoulders
Never
want the rain to fall or the weather to get colder.
(Chorus)
