Hey there mister, [D] can you tell me [G] what happened to the seeds I've sown?
Can you [C] give me a reason, [D] sir, as to [G] why they never grown?
[C] They just roll [G] around from town to [D] town till they're back out [G] on this field.
[C] Yeah, well, they [G] fell from my [D] hand back into the [G] dirt of this hard land.
Now, me [C] and my sister [D] from Germantown, [G] yeah, we did ride.
Well, we [C] made our bed, sir, [D] from the rock [G] on the mountainside.
[C] We've been rollin' around [G] from town to town [D] lookin' for a place [G] to land
where the [C] sun bursts through the clouds [G] to fall like a circle,
[D] like a circle of fire [G] down on this hard land.
Now, in the rain, it don't [D] come out, don't [G] come out any more.
And the only [C] sound at night's the [D] wind slammin' [G] that back porch door,
which [C] stirs you up like it [G] wants to blow you down, [D] twistin' and turnin' up [G] the sand.
[C] Yeah, leave it all in scat, [G] crows flying face down, [D] face down in the dirt [G] of this hard land.

a [C] building up on the hill, [D] I can hear a tape deck [G] blastin' home on the range.
And I can [C] see them bar-end choppers [D] sweepin' love [G] across the plains.
[C] And it's me and you, Frank, [G] we're lookin' for lost cattle,
[D] our hooves twistin' and turnin' up [G] the sand.
[C] Yeah, we're ridin' in the whirlwind, [G] searchin' for lost treasure
[D] way down south [G] of the Rio Grande.
[C] We're ridin' cross-country [G] in the moonlight,
[D] yeah, up into the banks [G] of this hard land.
Hey, Frank, won't [C] you pack your bags and [D] meet me tonight [G] down at Liberty Hall?
I just want [C] a kiss from you, my brother, [D] and we'll ride [G] until we fall.
[C] We'll sleep in the fields, [G] we'll sleep by the rivers, and [D] in the morning we'll make [G] land.
Well, if you [C] can't make it, stay hard, [G] stay hungry, stay alive if [D] you can.
And meet me in a dream [G] of this hard land.
