Introduction:
D#m C# G# D#m
You asked me without a single word
C# G# D#m
Lucky that I heard
C# G# C# G# D#m C#
It was in the wind and now I understand
D#m C# G# D#m
I'm sleepy I'll stay up for awhile
C# G# D#m
We're part of it now
C# G# C# G# D#m C#
And when it's done I bet we'll wonder how
F# G#
I don't feel the strain
F# G#
But it's surely there
F# G#
It's the work we're here for
F# D#m C# D#m C#
And like I said I'll help you unload
D#m C# G# D#m
There was something moving cross the field
C# G# D#m
So through the grass I ran
C# G# D#m C#
But it would never show itself to me
D#m C# G# D#m
I watched you from father down the road
C# G# D#m
Bending down so low
C# D#m
Digging ever deeper in the ground
F# G#
He doesn't even know
F# G#
When he works that plow
F# G#
He's what I'm here for
F# D#m C#
And like I said I'll help him unload
SOLO
D#m C# G# D#m C# G# D#m
A matter of interest left to me if anything can be
C#
Will such a fine unbroken line
C#
Ever break beneath the weight
F# D#m C# D#m
Or will I find him planting in the spring
