Shadows Of The Heartland

(início)

G           C
Verse One:
G
Sittin in the shade made by a hay truck on a hot day
A cloud of dust on an old dirt road meant lemonade was on the way
        C                                                G
She was beautiful, and her daddy said that I made a good hand
   D                                        C
We laid there on the ground as the sun went down
                      G
On the shadows of the heartland
Verse Two:
G
I helped her daddy fix up his old beat-up red Ford pick-up
I had her shinin' like a diamond, he said climb behind the wheel son
        C                                                         G
She was beautiful, said take her slow as he placed the keys in my hand
    D                              C                     G
And dancin' in the headlights that night, shadows of the heartland
Chorus:
D                                 C
Heaven can't be far away from the fields of gold where I was raised
          G
Where the sun shines bright but the light comes from the word
          D
Where you know you reap the seeds you sow
    C
You count your blessings row by row
    G
And sweat and blood and tears and love still work
    Em              D               C
The life I live the love I give the man I am
               G
Shadows of the heartland
Verse Three:
G
Friday night lights shining bright the last game of the season
We were just one play away from being undefeated
             C                                                         G
The pass was beautiful, but somehow that ball slipped right through my hands
        D                                     C
She was there to hold me close when it turned cold
                      G
In the shadows of the heartland
Chorus:
D                                 C
Heaven can't be far away from the fields of gold where I was raised
          G
Where the sun shines bright but the light comes from the word
          D
Where you know you reap the seeds you sow
    C
You count your blessings row by row
    G
And sweat and blood and tears and love still work
    Em              D               C
The life I live the love I give the man I am
               G            D     Em      c
Shadows of the heartland
 D      Em          C        G
Amazing grace and a place to plow
D           Em          C
That's what her dad was all about
     Em             C
Wish he was with us now
Chorus:
D                                 C
Heaven can't be far away from the fields of gold where I was raised
          G
Where the sun shines bright but the light comes from the word
          D
Where you know you reap the seeds you sow
    C
You count your blessings row by row
    G
And sweat and blood and tears and love still work
    Em              D               C
The life I live the love I give the man I am
               G
Shadows of the heartland
