Harvest by Lisa Theriot
Harvest
Tuning: E A D G B E
[Intro]
Dm
[Verse 1]
Dm C
They tell a tale at Harvest time, of a man they call John Barleycorn
Dm C
A young man cut down in his prime, So that his soul might be reborn
Bb C
His seed is put into the ground, and as the season turns around
Bb C Dm
He rises up to meet the sky, only to be cut down by the Harvest
[Chorus]
C Dm
Round the seasons come and go
C Dm
High and mighty are laid low
C Dm
Hand the reaper what you sow
Bb
For you will climb
C Dm
But then it's time to be ready for the Harvest
[Verse 2]
Dm C
John Barleycorn will pay the price, our daily bread and grain to yield
Dm C
Cut down as a sacrifice, like youth upon a battlefield
Bb C
What a gift he has to give, that he should die that we might live
Bb C Dm
Man can know no greater love, and we enjoy the blessings of the harvest
[Chorus]
C Dm
Round the seasons come and go
C Dm
High and mighty are laid low
C Dm
Hand the reaper what you sow
Bb
For you will climb
C Dm
But then it's time to be ready for the Harvest
[Bridge]
Bb C Bb A
And in the gather do you feel, one more turning of the wheel?
[Verse 3]
Dm C
Remember as you sow the seed, the neck that feels the reaper's blade
Dm C
And so your life becomes indeed, the corners turned and choices made
Bb C
Remember as you seek the light, to every morning comes the night
Bb C Dm
And when you feast and have your fill, don’t forget it's only 'til the Harvest
[Chorus]
C Dm
Round the seasons come and go
C Dm
High and mighty are laid low
C Dm
Hand the reaper what you sow
Bb
For you will climb
C Dm
But then it's time to be ready for the Harvest
