Harvest Time by Lonesome River Band
Harvest Time
Tuning: E A D G B E
Capo: 4th fret
[Verse 1]
G D C G
Cool and cloudy nights upon Boll Mountain, Alabama
D G
I was stealing corn from Homer Lawson's field
G D C G
The rattle of the cornstalks and the bark of Homer's hound dog
D G
Made me hug the ground and lie dead still
G D C G
Flashing through my mind was Big Homer's reputation
D G
A man who really didn't give a damn
G D C G
They say he shot ol' Mountain Joe for just one ear of corn
D G
And laughed the day they laid him in the ground
[Verse 2]
C G
Well, I can hear the breaking of the sticks From someone's footsteps
G D G
But shaky legs just can't get up and run
C G
And as I lay there breathless, the next thing I expected
G D G
Was a blast of hell from Homer Lawson's gun
[Instrumental]
C G C G D G C
[Verse 3]
G D C G
The clouds rolled by and then I saw the shadow of a lady
D G
It was Homer's lovely daughter Julie Ann
G D C G
I smelled the perfume in her hair as she sat down beside me
D G
Whispered, "Papa's running moonshine again"
[Outro]
C G
I thank God for cloudy nights and Alabama's whiskey stills
G D G
And harvest time in Homer Lawson's field
C G
I thank God for cloudy nights and Alabama's whiskey stills
G D G
And harvest time in Homer Lawson's field
