Biografía:

DANNY RIVERA
- Lead Vocals, Acoustic and Electric Guitar, Banjo, Dobro and Lap Steel.

Danny began his musical career as a roadie for a south Texas band. Down time between shows left room for one of the band members to show him a couple of chords on the guitar. Those three chords sparked an interest in performing that has been going strong ever since. "Once it's in your blood - it's hard to stop", he says. Life on the road landed him a regular gig with capital recording artist Allison Paige

(Strum once for each of the chords in the first verse.)


G Cadd9 G
In Knox County nobody was famous
G Cadd9 G
Just a map dot that people passed through
G Cadd9 G
Everybody grew Corn and tomatoes, yeah
G D G(Begin strum pattern. I use D-DU-UDU.)
At least as far as we knew



G Cadd9 G
Old man Beckett on 200 acres
G Cadd9 G
From sunup till sundown he worked
G Cadd9 G
Just like the rest of our neighbors
G D G
He seemed like the salt of the earth



C Fmaj7 C
But we all knew something was different
G D
When the market hit bottom that year
G Cadd9 G
While the rest of the county was starvin'
Em D G
He brought home a brand new John Deere


G Cadd9 G
Well that rumor mill started churning
G Cadd9 G
Down at the Lucky Dog Cafe
G Cadd9 G
And it spread thru our Church Congregation
G D G
When he threw a grand in the plate


C Fmaj7 C
Had his lotto numbers gone lucky
G D
Or did some rich relative die
G Cadd9 G
Where on God's earth did he get the money
G D G
To install that Jacuzzi outside



Key Change to A


[Bridge]

A
One night after fishin with all of the fellas
A F#m
Curiosity got the best of us.
A
So we crept thru his corn rows with flashlights and high hopes
A F#m
To see what the truth really was
E D A
Till we were stopped by a shot from his gun, run



A D A
We scattered in every direction
A D A
Grateful to get out alive
A D A
What happened that night was never mentioned
A E A
Till the day they arrived


D G D
With helicopters and squad cars
A E
They completely surrounded his place
A D A
They cut down all of his cash crops
F#m E A
I can still see the shame on his face


D G D
As they hauled him away in those handcuffs
A E
For growin' what he shouldn't grow
A D A
He said "Careful kids one day you'll end up
F#m E A
Reapin' the seeds that you sew

(Strum once for the last verse)


A D A
In Knox County nobody was famous
A D A
Just a map dot that people passed through
A D A
Everybody grew corn and tomatoes, yeah
A E A
At least as far as we knew
