Guitar chords with lyrics
Sunflowers
D C G
Well there's cars on the driveway as you turn into the yard,
C G D
The casket's in the living room, you look away and swallow hard.
D C G
Someone hands you a bottle, and you don't know who they are.
C G D
Ain't it funny how you used to know everybody in these parts.
D C G
And you hardly knew the dead man, though you spoke a time or to two.
C G D
He had a wife and two small children, and he lived just like you do.
Chorus:
D C G
And he died on his tractor, holdin' his end down,
C G D
Forty acres left to plant and forty in the ground.
D C G
But he never had a chance, that's what they're saying now.
C G D
The bank was gonna walk in any day anyhow.
D C G
And it makes you kind of wonder, as you watch the daylight burn,
C G D
Wonder if he knew it, wonder if he'd heard.
D C G She's got a crooked smile and there's dark around her eyes. C G D She says she knows she's got to get on with her life. D C G And you stand off the lawn, and look to where the sun sets. C G D And someone says we ain't seen the last of it yet. Chorus D C G There's a crop of yellow sunflowers, in the field across the way C G D Makes you sorta grin as you're coming down the lane D C G Three hundred bucks a ton, it's what they said at plantin' time C G D But when it comes to harvest it wasn't worth a dime Source: Phone Lyrics
