 C                     D               F7               C
So we started in the cornfield; And I know we did not slack
C                     D              F7                        C
We got everything in order; But we forgot to bring the bucket back
      G7             C         F               C
The foreman he went crazy; And ran around the field
 G7              C               F            C           Bb     F     C
Said we must be lazy; Had to be seen to be believed; ... Seen to be believed
              Am    G              Am   G      Am  G
But it was a long, way; From this high road
         Am    G         Am   G  Am  G
It was a far, away from here.

      C             D                F7                   C
The farmer had a daughter; And she worked at the wishing well
 C                  D               F7                C
Put one leg in the water; 'til she found the mission bell
    G7                C          F              C
The old man, he went crazy; And ran to get his gun
   G7                C                 F                   C   Bb           F       C
We had a bad time explaining; We were just having drunken fun. Just having drunken fun

              Am   G              Am   G    Am  G
But it was a long way; From this high road, Oh!
          Am   G        Am    G   Am  G
It was a long way from here;

Bb                       C   F C   Bb                         C     F  C   (or Bb  F ?)
So we walked along this road …………  Just tellin' stories as we go;
Bb             C
We just walk along.

Well the farmer had a daughter; And she did not speak a word
C                             D      F7                              C
We used to kiss her, in the orchard; Till one morning we were over..heard
    G7               C      F                  C
The old man he went crazy; Running around the field
 G7              C                F            C     (F C)   Bb         F  C
Said we must be crazy; Had to be seen, to be believed …………  Seen to be ………
