[Intro]
Am Am x2
 
[Verse 1]
Am F C
This year in my garden, I grow peppers and tomatoes
F C G Em
Peppers and tomatoes, they grow together well
Am F C
And my neighbors all around me, they grow beans and potatoes
F C G Em Am
Cabbages and onions in the village where we dwell
 
[Verse 2]
Am F C
And later in the year, we will bring wine to the table
F C G Em
Bring wine to the table and reap what we have sown
Am F C
Like my father did before and his father did before him
F C G Em Am
And his father did before him, we will share what we have grown
 
[Chorus]
Am F F Em
This little patch of dirt, this little pile of stones
Em F G N.C.
I can wash the dust from off my face and skin
Am Am
But this earth is in my bones
 
[Verse 3]
Am F C
Military vehicles are passing through our village
F C G Em
Passing through our village with young soldiers ill at ease
Am F C
Unsmiling and unshaven, distrustful and uncertain
F C G Em Am
Distrustful and uncertain and all smoking constantly
 
[Verse 4]
Am F C
My neighbors say, "Don't worry for you are one of us
F C G Em
You are one of us and it will not happen here"
Am F C
But the next night at the cafe, when I bring wine to the table
F C G Em Am
When I bring wine to the table, they are sitting drinking beer
 
[Verse 5]
Am F C
Last night the hand of friendship fell heavy on my shoulders
F C G Em
Heavy on my shoulders as I turned away to go
Am F C
As I said goodnight some old men, some old men and young soldiers
F C G Em Am
Were humming tunes and singing words to songs that I did not know
 
[Chorus]
Am F F Em
Oh, this little patch of dirt and this little pile of stones
Em F G N.C.
I can wash the dust from off my face and skin
Am Am Am Am
But this earth is in my bones
 
[Verse 6]
Am F C
This morning my wife told me that she'd been to church on Sunday
F C G Em
Been to church on Sunday, she had felt the need to pray
Am F C
Our children were baptised there, but it was just to please the old ones
F C G Em Am Am
Just to please the old ones and I don't know what to say
 
[Verse 7]
Am F C
Tonight as dark is falling, I am tending to my garden
F C G Em
Tending to my garden and the crop that I have grown
Am F C
My car is heavy laden and soon I'll start the engine
F C G Em Am
Soon I'll start the engine, wake the children and be gone
 
[Chorus]
Am F F Em
Oh, this little patch of dirt and this little pile of stones
Em F G N.C.
I can wash the dust from off my face and skin
Am Am
But this earth is in my bones
 
[Verse 8]
Am F C
My shotgun it is loaded and it's hidden in the cabin
F C G Em
It's hidden in the cabin and the evening's growing chill
Am F C
My mouth is dry, my hands are moist, if someone tries to stop me
F C G Em Am
If someone tries to stop me, I am ready now to kill
 
[Chorus]
Am F F Em
Oh, this little patch of dirt and this little pile of stones
Em F G N.C.
I can wash the dust from off my face and skin
Am Am Am Am
But this earth is in my bones
 
[Verse 9]
Am F C
I am watering my garden when I smell the cigarette smoke
F C G Em
Smell the cigarette smoke and I turn round in the dust
Am F C
And I see the glint of rifles but I cannot see the faces
F C G Em Am
But I recognise the voices that say, "You must come with us"
