Em        G                    Em 
My father said some things you learn 

        C             D7         G 
By only doin' when it comes your turn 

                                           Em 
Everything comes around so be ready if you can 

             C              D7               G 
Prepare your heart like the farmer turns his land 


                   Em 
And you plant your fields when the spring is tender 

                                        Am 
When the summer beats down you pray for rain 

G                                          C 
You hope for the harvest and the long cold winter 

             B7                Em 
And then you plant your fields again 


   G                          Em 
He spoke right to my restless soul 

      C               D7            G 
Still wild and hungry and beyond control 

                                            Em 
For all that you dream there's a time and a place 

        C                  D7            G 
But you won't know it till it comes your way 


                   Em 
And you plant your fields when the spring is tender 

                                        Am 
When the summer beats down you pray for rain 

G                                          C 
You hope for the harvest and the long cold winter 

             B7                Em 
And then you plant your fields again 


Em 
When the spring is tender 

                                        Am 
When the summer beats down you pray for rain 

G                                          C 
You hope for the harvest and the long cold winter 

             B7                Em 
And then you plant your fields again 


    B7                Em 
You plant your fields again 

    B7                Em 
You plant your fields again 

    B7                Em 
You plant your fields again
