F
I woke up the same way this morning
C
Like a stranger in my own life
Dm C
Tired and confused with too much to do
Bb F
Nothing left for my kids and my wife
Bb F
Oh I clung to that first cup of coffee
Bb
Praying god, won't you show me what's real
F
Then out in the distance I saw through the window
Bb F C F
A man on a tractor with a dog in a field
F
The dog walked just like it was smiling
Bb F
The man drove like the world was all right
Dm C
The tractor hummed on like a part of a song
Bb F
That you sing to your children at night
Bb F
His work was laid out there before him
Bb F
In rows of green, his whole life was revealed
Bb F
Oh what I wouldn't give if I could just live
Bb F C F
Like a man on a tractor with a dog in a field
Chorus:
F C Bb F
Let me do what I'm doing, let me be where I am
Dm Bb F
Let me find peace of mind on my own piece of land
C Bb
When I'm lost, help me to let go and find someway to feel
F Bb C F
Like a man on a tractor with a dog in a field
Instrumental: F-Dm-Bb-F-Dm-Bb-C
F
There I was watching and wondering
My wife came down and sat beside me
Dm C
She said. it's not about living another man's life
F C F
It's about seeing your own differently
Bb F
Oh this home that I love and my children
What more could one man hope to yield
Bb F
She touched my face and said, there's more than one way
Bb C F
To be a man on a tractor with a dog in a field
Repeat Chorus
