[Intro]
C Em We were heading on home, deasil in me G Down an old gravel road way
A
out in the country Bm A Tuckered out after working the
Em7 D
fields all-day G A When all of a sudden, off like a shot D That dog took off running,
Bm D
barkin' his head off G Em Wherever he went, he went like
G
there was heck to pay [Verse]
D Em So lickedy-split, I crashed
through the fields G Chasin after that hound and
A
I was hot on his heels Bm When we both went over the
A Em7 D
edge of a deep ravine G As I crawled up the bank cold
A
and soaked to the bone D A glint caught my eye from the
Bm
mud where it shown G Em Something was buried there
A
alongside the stream D Now the middle of a field is a
A
pretty odd place to find Bm G Some kind of trunk or chest or a crate C G But buried under the earth,
A Bm A
I saw a corner exposed C No, there wasn't a map or a
G
note or a key D G Bm A It was clearly forgotten just waiting for me Em G Like I was supposed to find it there
A
right under my nose [Instrumental]
D G C
Bsus4 B [Verse]
E It had laid there for years,
F#m
deep in the dirt A So I dug it out and wiped
B
my hands on my shirt C#m B F#m I pried up the lid and excitedly peered inside A D And what I saw was a sight to behold E 'Cause that tattered old trunk was
C#m
crammed full of gold F#m E My eyes bugged out, it was enough to
A B
make a grown man cry E B Big golden bricks with a shimmery sheen C#m They were a staggering sight to a
A
poor boy like me D A And right then and there, I knew what
B A B
I had to do E B So with a smile, I sold what little I had E A I gave my pots and my pans to
C#m B
my mom and my dad F#m And then I bought that field A B E A E B 'Cause it was my dream come true [Instrumental]
E A D C#m C# [Verse]
F# And then full of joy,
G#m
I said goodbye to my shack B It wasn't much of a home so
C#
I never looked back D#m C# And I never questioned the choice
G#m
I happily made B C# I said "I need that field whatever it takes" F# You might call it foolish but
D#m C#
I call it faith G#m F# Trusting in God so gladly,
B C#
you can hardly wait F# And that's how I learned how a
C#
rich fella accounts D#m It's treasure in heaven,
B
not under the ground F# 'Cause betting the farm is
C#
well worth the risk F# B D#m C# To carefully keep such a beautiful gift
G#m B
that's yours forever C# B C# It's a pretty good deal F# There's a couple of things
C#
more precious than gold F# B D#m C# G#m One is your heart and the other's your soul B And you've got something you need that
C#
nobody can steal [Bridge]
F# C# It's a fable, you see and the moral is this F# B Your heart's with your treasure,
D#m C#
wherever it is G#m B And trust me when you dig,
Bb7 D#m C#
a treasure will be revealed G#m And you never know
B
what could be buried in the
F# C#
middle of a field [Outro]
