Harvester

E F# It's dead quiet where we live E F# We break our backs and have nothing to show for it E C#m For 40 days, I've roamed around the desert G#m C#m seven weeks no chance for change in weather E C#m plagued by indecision for we are at a loss G#m E F# (hold) the harvester is coming nothing we have can pay the cost. E B stay ahead don't get behind F#/A# G#m there's no use if you can't keep time F#/A# E B F#/A# stay ahead, don't break, don't break down. E C#m the owl sits perched up in the juniper G#m C#m patiently she waits for her love to return E C#m he's flying home, he's sure that he will make it E C#m the hunters hide in shadow listening for a noise G#m the path ahead is narrow C#m F# (hold) the owl hasn't got a choice. E B stay ahead don't get behind F#/A# G#m there's not use if you can't keep time F#/A# E B F#/A# stay ahead, don't break, don't break down. E B make your money, don't sell out short F#/A# G#m read the records and the reports, F#/A# E B F#/A# make sure you fend for yourself. E B all the books that I could read F#/A# G#m won't keep danger away from me F#/A# E B F#/A# I'll keep my head up and weather the storm. E B C#m I'll keep my head up and weather the storm.
