Аккорды Ralph McTell - Peppers And Tomatoes

[Intro]
Am Am x2

[Verse 1]
Am                             F             C
This year in my garden, I grow peppers and tomatoes
F             C            G             Em
Peppers and tomatoes, they grow together well
       Am                                 F           C
And my neighbors all around me, they grow beans and potatoes
F            C             G                Em    Am
Cabbages and onions in the village where we dwell

[Verse 2]
    Am                         F                 C
And later in the year, we will bring wine to the table
F                 C         G                 Em
Bring wine to the table and reap what we have sown
        Am                        F                 C
Like my father did before and his father did before him
        F                 C            G                  Em    Am
And his father did before him, we will share what we have grown

[Chorus]
Am                     F    F                    Em
  This little patch of dirt, this little pile of stones
Em                       F                    G N.C.
I can wash the dust from off my face and skin
                        Am     Am
But this earth is in my bones

[Verse 3]
Am                    F                   C
Military vehicles are passing through our village
F                   C                  G               Em
Passing through our village with young soldiers ill at ease
  Am                       F              C
Unsmiling and unshaven, distrustful and uncertain
   F              C               G             Em    Am
Distrustful and uncertain and all smoking constantly

[Verse 4]
   Am                              F              C
My neighbors say, "Don't worry for you are one of us
        F       C        G               Em
You are one of us and it will not happen here"
        Am                             F                 C
But the next night at the cafe, when I bring wine to the table
       F                 C               G                Em    Am
When I bring wine to the table, they are sitting drinking beer

[Verse 5]
     Am                                F           C
Last night the hand of friendship fell heavy on my shoulders
F           C              G              Em
Heavy on my shoulders as I turned away to go
     Am                                F                 C
As I said goodnight some old men, some old men and young soldiers
     F                 C                G                    Em    Am
Were humming tunes and singing words to songs that I did not know

[Chorus]
Am                         F   F                        Em
  Oh, this little patch of dirt and this little pile of stones
Em                       F                    G N.C.
I can wash the dust from off my face and skin
                        Am     Am Am Am
But this earth is in my bones

[Verse 6]
     Am                                 F                 C
This morning my wife told me that she'd been to church on Sunday
F                 C               G                Em
Been to church on Sunday, she had felt the need to pray
    Am                                               F          C
Our children were baptised there, but it was just to please the old ones
        F          C                    G            Em    Am Am
Just to please the old ones and I don't know what to say

[Verse 7]
  Am                             F             C
Tonight as dark is falling, I am tending to my garden
F             C              G                Em
Tending to my garden and the crop that I have grown
   Am                     F                   C
My car is heavy laden and soon I'll start the engine
F                   C                  G             Em    Am
Soon I'll start the engine, wake the children and be gone

[Chorus]
Am                         F   F                        Em
  Oh, this little patch of dirt and this little pile of stones
Em                       F                    G N.C.
I can wash the dust from off my face and skin
                        Am    Am
But this earth is in my bones

[Verse 8]
   Am                            F             C
My shotgun it is loaded and it's hidden in the cabin
     F             C             G                 Em
It's hidden in the cabin and the evening's growing chill
   Am                                   F                C
My mouth is dry, my hands are moist, if someone tries to stop me
   F                C             G            Em    Am
If someone tries to stop me, I am ready now to kill

[Chorus]
Am                         F   F                        Em
  Oh, this little patch of dirt and this little pile of stones
Em                       F                    G N.C.
I can wash the dust from off my face and skin
                        Am    Am Am Am
But this earth is in my bones

[Verse 9]
     Am                        F              C
I am watering my garden when I smell the cigarette smoke
F              C                G                 Em
Smell the cigarette smoke and I turn round in the dust
      Am                            F              C
And I see the glint of rifles but I cannot see the faces
      F             C                 G                  Em   Am
But I recognise the voices that say, "You must come with us"
