'Sowing Love'  -  Paul  Overstreet

Intro - A - E - B -  E

                                                A
I  use to love to walk behind my daddy
 B                                             E
As  he plowed our garden every  spring
                                                                A
A  little care feet in the dirt would make me  happy
            B                                                    E
As  we talked about what harvest time would  bring
                                                          A
He'd  say son this whole world is like a  garden
        B                                             E
And  what you sow your surely gonna  reap
                                                                A
Where  bitter seeds are planted hearts will  harden
           B                                                    E
But  a caring hand will make the heart as  sweet

CHORUS:
                                              A                E
And  he (she; they) was sowing love for the  family
                                        B                                     E              Em
He  (she; they) was sowing love, he (she; they) took a little extra  time
               A                             E
Looking  forward to a bountiful  harvest
           B                                                                    E
Like  a good father (momma) does he (she) was sowing love

(3.  They took  good care of us they were sowing love)

LEAD         A - E - B - E

And how I use to  love and sit and watch my momma 

Working with her needle and her  thread

So patiently she'd listen to our problems

And we knew she  heard every word we said

She'd say "children this old world is full  of scratches

And in your life your bound to have a few"

I  guess that's why the good Lord gave us patches

So we could start each day  out feeling new

CHORUS  2

CHORUS  3

Yeah they did  it all for us they were sowing love
