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 
  C            G 
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 
 
             D 
And all that time in California 
       C               G 
It was just a waste of seed 
       D 
I left everything I cared for 
  C              D 
Neglected in the weeds 
       Em             D 
But my love for sweet Rebecca 
           C 
Just keeps growing on and on 
         D      C                 G 
And it's time I bring the harvest home 
 
C  G  C  G 
 
G 
Well I called Rebecca just last night 
      C                    G 
And I broke right down and cried 
 
As soon as I heard her sweet voice 
C                D 
Across the great divide 
Em 
In my dreams the grass was green 
   C           G 
On Sunset Boulevard 
G 
But eleven hundred miles from now 
     C              G           C                G 
I'll wake up in her arms, yeah, back home on the farm 
 
             D 
And all that time in California 
       C               G 
It was just a waste of seed 
       D 
I left everything I cared for 
  C              D 
Neglected in the weeds 
       Em             D 
But my love for sweet Rebecca 
           C 
Just keeps growing on and on 
         D      C                 G 
And it's time I bring the harvest home 
         Em             D 
Yeah, my love for sweet Rebecca 
           C 
Just keeps growing on and on 
         D      C                 G 
And it's time I bring the harvest home 
 
(C G C G to fade)
