Willie Nelson - Heartland guitar tab

F

There's a home place under fire tonight in the Heartland

C G7 C

And the bankers are taking my home and my land from me

C7 F

There's a big gapping hole in my chest now, where my heart was

G7 C

And a hole in the sky, where God used to be

C C7 F

There's a home place under fire tonight in the Heartland

C G7 C

There's a well where the water's so bitter nobody can't drink

C7 F

And no way to get high and my mouth is so dry that I can't talk

C G7 C

Oh, they know that 'm dying why nobody crying for me

G C

My American dream, fell apart at the seams

G C

You tell me what it means, you tell me what it means

INSTRUMENTAL (C C7 F C G7 C C7 C7 F C G7 C)

C C7 F

There's a home place under fire tonight in a Heartland

C G7 C

and bankers are taking the homes and the land away

C C7 F

There's a young boy closing his eyes tonight in a Heartland

C G7 C

who will wake up a man with some land and a loan he can't pay

G C

His American dream, fell apart at the seams

G C

You tell me what it means, you tell me what it means.
