5 Acres Of Turnips Chords & Lyrics Artist: Pistol Annies

VERSE
              B
Five acres of turnips
             Esus2
Ripe for the picking
                  B
The sweat and the blood
          F#
Oughta be enough
           G#m      F#
To keep me going
 
 
VERSE
              B
A heart and a trowel
                 Esus2
The will to keep spinning
               B
Faith that's untamed
                 F#
A prayer for the rain
                      G#m
So the rose will keep growing
 
 
CHORUS
B
 Don't take it for granted (Ooh)
G#m
 Reap what you planted (Ooh)
B
 Generations of shame (Ooh)
E                             F#
 In my granddaddy's name (Ooh)
 
 
VERSE
            B
Tear in the screen door
            Esus2
Lettin' the flies in
            B
The radio's on
                F#
The sweetest of songs
                   G#m
But I know they're lying
 
 
CHORUS
B
 Secrets just simmer (Ooh)
G#m
 Momma makes dinner (Ooh)
B
 Then we all gather 'round (Ooh)
E                                 F#
 Another hole in the ground (Ooh)

Somethin' beautiful comes out of this dirt
B                                G#m
Something better than him at his worst
         F#
One at a time
            E
Dead on the vine
