Biography:
Sawyer Brown is a country music band formed in 1981 at a Pizza Hut restaurant in Apopka, Florida. Lead singer Mark Miller asked keyboardist Gregg "Hobie" Hubbard to play piano for a couple of songs he had written. The two left for Nashville, Tennessee, where they met up with Florida drummer Joe Smyth, Michigan bass player Jim Scholten and original lead guitarist Bobby Randall. They first called the band "Savanah", but renamed themselves "Sawyer Brown" after Sawyer Brown Road, the street where they rehearsed.

[Intro]
D Bm G A
Whoa-whoa whooooaaa whoa whoa whoa
D Bm G A D
Whoa-whoa whoooooaa whoa whoa whoa
[Verse]
D
There are tears in the eyes of the scarecrow
Bm
His head is sinkin' low
G
He tends his fields with the best of them
D A
Thinkin love can make it grow
D
But when the landlord says "Its over"
Bm
And the harvest has turned cold
G
There ain't enough to pay the man
D A
After the crops have been sold
[Chorus]
G A
Tell me what do we see when we look in the mirror
D Bm
He don't see no money but he sees something clearer
G D A
There's a man doin all that he can in the midst of no concern
G A
Well he ain't out in the sun tryin' to get his arms brown
D Bm
He's tryin' to pull a livin' out of that ol' hard ground
G D A
These days a man and his dreams can get a little bit burned
A D Bm G A
Workin' on a farmer tan, whoa-whoa whooooooaaaa whoa whoa whoa
D Bm G A D
Whoa-whoa whoooooaaa whoa whoa whoa
[Verse](same chords)
The fruits of his labor
Have dried upon the vine
He dont' want for finer things
He's wanting to get by
There are fertile fields of compassion
We have yet to turn
We educate and we nominate
But will we ever learn?
[Chorus]
G A
Tell me what do we see when we look in the mirror
