Intro
D#
24 acres of Indiana farmland, airstream trailer
living in the heartland
G# D#
a little ways west of where the day is born
I put 200,000 miles on this Japanese car
mechanic says it's dying now don't take it very far
G# D#
but I love to go out driving watch the sun melt on the corn
A# G# D#
we're living in the heartland, somewhere between the mountains and the shore
[Verse 1]
D#
at school the kids are learning about Christopher Columbus
the names of all his ships, how to use a compass
G#
and I wish that it could stop there
D#
I wish there was a way to keep 'um young
D#
'Cause when I think about him now, he must have been all shaky handed
delusions of grandeur and lines in the sand
G# D#
and a look in his eye of a man who has been at sea too long
A# G# D#
trying to find his legs and afraid to admit he might be wrong
[Chorus]
G#
It's what I don't know that makes this living easy
Cm
the more I learn the more it brings me to my knees and I say
D#
please
A# G#
let me back inside the garden
A# G# D#
I won't eat anything that's fallen from that goddamn tree
[Verse 2]
D#
24 acres of Indiana farmland, used to be 100
but grandpa lost a card game
G# D#
we moved back here from Boston cause I lost my job and this is where I'm from
and the kids seem pretty happy, they don't miss their dad too much
I can't answer all their questions but they never lack for love
G#
that's what I tell my mother when she calls
D#
"now don't you worry about us"
A# . G# D#
we're living in the heartland and we're learning how to let that be enough
[Chorus]
G#
It's what I don't know that makes this living easy
Cm
the more I learn the more it brings me to my knees and I say
D#
please
A# G#
let me back inside the garden
A# G# D#
I won't eat anything that's fallen from that goddamn tree
[Verse 3]
D#
We don't keep a TV cause the news is always bad
and it teaches us to want all the things we'll never have
G#
and there's always someone getting hurt cause someone else was feeling
D#
too let down
one of these nights I'm gonna go out to the crossroads
see who's buying
and I'll tell him just to go on home
G# D#
I'll look him in the eye and say "you don't scare me now"
A# G# D#
since the bottle took my baby and the banker took my house
G# G# D#
we're living in the heartland surely somewhere here is where the heart is found
[Chorus]
G#
It's what I don't know that makes this living easy
Cm
the more I learn the more it brings me to my knees and I say
D#
please
A# G#
let me back inside the garden
A# G#
I won't eat anything that's fallen
A# G# D#
I won't touch anything that's fallen from that goddamn tree
