   F            C                G            F     G F 
In Peterborough County there's a village in a valley 
C            G           F          C 
Me, I have a farm at the top of the hill 
        F              C                G                  F     G F 
You can have your city streets and your backyards and your alleys 
C                G                  F      C 
Me, I have these green fields and I always will 


      G              C                G              C 
And I married out of high school to a girl I knew forever 
       G            C                F 
And we settled in together and three children came 
        G                 C              G              C 
And the life that we were living, was forgive and be forgiven 
    G              F                            C 
But whenever I saw sunshine, she could only see rain 


        F               C                    G             F       G F 
Left me standing in the cornfields, with the dry land all around me 
      C           G                F       C 
And I felt myself sinking like the setting sun 
        F                C      G             F       G F 
And the sky was like the ocean, pouring down around me 
  C             G               F     C 
I used to be so proud and I was all undone 


INTERLUDE: C  G  F  C 


     F                C             G             F        G F 
So I kept on working my land, and I held on with both hands 
      C                   G              F    C 
And I watched the seasons turning in the sky above 
      F                C             G                F     G F 
And I worked beside my father and we bent our backs together 
      C                G             F      C 
And I wondered would I ever find someone to love 


         G              C             G                   C 
But when I was good and ready, when I stood up strong and steady 
G                  C              F 
Love came with the letters in the morning mail 
      G               C                G            C 
And I knew that I had found her when I put my arms around her 
       G                  F                         C 
When I see her now in the morning, how that sunrise pales 


          F               C                    G             F       G F 
Leaves me standing in the cornfields, with the dry land all around me 
      C           G               F       C 
And I feel myself rising like the morning sun 
        F               C      G                 F      G F 
And the sky is like the ocean, wide and blue and rolling 
      C               G                    F    C 
And I know that in my own heart, she's the only one 


   F            C                G            F     G F 
In Peterborough County there's a village in a valley 
C            G           F          C 
Me, I have a farm at the top of the hill 
        F              C                G                  F     G F 
You can have your city streets and your backyards and your alleys 
C                G                  F      C 
Me, I have these green fields and I always will
