Em        G                    Em
My father said some things you learn
        C             D7         G
By only doin' when it comes your turn
                                           Em
Everything comes around so be ready if you can
             C              D7               G
Prepare your heart like the farmer turns his land

                   Em
And you plant your fields when the spring is tender
                                        Am
When the summer beats down you pray for rain
G                                          C
You hope for the harvest and the long cold winter
             B7                Em
And then you plant your fields again

   G                          Em
He spoke right to my restless soul
      C               D7            G
Still wild and hungry and beyond control
                                            Em
For all that you dream there's a time and a place
        C                  D7            G
But you won't know it till it comes your way

                   Em
And you plant your fields when the spring is tender
                                        Am
When the summer beats down you pray for rain
G                                          C
You hope for the harvest and the long cold winter
             B7                Em
And then you plant your fields again

Em
When the spring is tender
