Where Corn Don't Grow Lyrics - Waylon Jennings

Verse 1: 

D G D 

As we sat on the front porch of that old grey house where i was born and raised 

Bm G D 

Stared out at the dusty fields where daddy always worked hard eveyday 

Bm G D 

I think it kind of hurt him when i said "Daddy there's a lot that i don't know 

Bm G D 

But don't you ever dream about a life where corn don't grow"

Verse 2: 

D G D 

He just sat there silent staring in his favorite coffee cup 

Bm G D 

I saw a storm of mixed emotions in his eyes when he looked up 

Bm G D 

He said "Son i know at your age it feels like this ol' world is turning slow 

Bm G D 

And you think you'll find the answer to it all, where corn don't grow" 

Chorus: 

D Bm G 

Hard times are real, there's dusty fields 

D 

No matter where you go 

Bm G 

You may change your mind,'cause the weeds are high 

D 

Where corn don't grow

Verse 3: 

D G D 

I remember feeling guilty when daddy turned and walked back in the house 

Bm G D 

I was only seventeen back then but it seems like i knew more than i do now 

Bm G D 

I can't say he didn't tell me this city life's a hard row to hoe 

Bm G D 

It's funny how a dream can turn around, where corn don't grow 

Chorus. 

D Bm G 

You may change your mind,'cause the weeds are high 

D 

Where corn don't grow
