This Hard Land

G              C               D
    Hey there mister, can you 
                             G     
tell me what happened to the seeds 
        Gsus4
I've sown
G                      C         
    Can you give me a reason sir,
D                   G
 as to why they've never grown
            C                   G
They've just blown around from town 
to town
            D                 
'Til they're back out on these 
  G
fields
C                    G
    Where they fall from my hand
 D                     G      
Back into the dirt of this hard 
        Gsus4
land.

[Verse 2]
Now me and my sister, from 
Germantown yes we did ride
We made our bed sir from the rock on
 the mountainside
We been blowin' around form town to 
town
Lookin' for a place to stand
Where the sun bursts through the 
clouds to fall like a circle
Like a circle of fire down on this 
hard land.

[Verse 3]
Now even the rain it don't come 
'round, don't come 'round here no 
more
And the only sound at night's the 
wind slammin' the back porch door
It just stirs you up like it wants 
to blow you down
Twistin' and churnin' up the sand
Leavin' all them scarecrows lyin' 
face down
Face down in the dirt of this hard 
land.
