G
The road ain't looked this good to me
C G
In a couple of months or so
I've been breaking ground, heading down

A hard road to hoe
Em
I've been farming dreams but I ain't seen
C G
No harvest in L.A.
But there's time enough to win her back
C G
I can't waste another day
G
A farmer I was born
C G
And a farmer I will die
I want to plant my heels in a fertile field
C G
And dry Rebecca's eyes
Em
Well I couldn't work that desert dirt
C G
And I thought my dreams were gone
But dreaming keeps on driving me
C G C G
A little further on, yeah, a little further on

Neglected in the weeds

Just keeps growing on and on

And it's time I bring the harvest home

Well I called Rebecca just last night

And I broke right down and cried
As soon as I heard her sweet voice

In my dreams the grass was green

On Sunset Boulevard

But eleven hundred miles from now
C G C G
I'll wake up in her arms, yeah, back home on the farm
