Peterborough County is a village in a valley
G# D# G#
May have a farm at the top of the hill
C# G# Fm D#
You can have your city streets, your backyards and your alleys
G# D# G#
Me I have these green fields, and I always will
D# G# C# G#
Im married out of high school, to a girl I knew forever
D# G# C# D# Fm
We settled in together, and three children came
D# G# C# G#
The life that we'd been living was forgive and be forgiven
D# G# C# D# Fm
But whenever I saw sunshine, she could only see grey
C# G# Fm D#
Left me standing in the cornfields, the dry land all around me
C# G# D#
And I felt myself sinking, like the setting sun
C# G# C# D# Fm
The sky was like an ocean, pouring down around me
C# G# D# G#
I used to be so proud, now its all undone
D# G# C# G#
So I kept on working my land, I held on with both hands
D# G# C# D# Fm
And I watched the seasons turning, in the sky above
D# G# C# G#
I worked beside my father, we bent our backs together
D# G# C# D# Fm
And I wonder could I ever find someone to love

When I was good and ready, when I stood up strong and steady
D# G# C# D# Fm

D# G# C# D# Fm
When I see her in the morning, how that sun rises
C# G# Fm D#
Leaves me standing in the cornfields, the dry land all around me
C# D#
And I feel myself rising, like the morning sun
G# C# D# Fm
And the sky is like an ocean, white blue rolling
G# D# G#
And I know that in my own heart, shes the only one
