Harvest Of Love (ver 2) - Benny Hill

Note - Benny sings the 'intro' verse and the chorus but almost talks through verses 2 and 3
with quite quiet music in the background.

Intro = C

'Intro' verse 1
C 
I rise at six and then I feed the chicks
        F                    G
And I’m feeling lonesome and blue
             C
And when I milk the cows it seems somehow 
   F                         G
My thoughts keep straying to you 
           C                      Em
And as the horse and I plough the field nearby 
     Am                F   
Your memory I can't erase
            Em
For while I walk at the rear of the horse my dear  
G
 I seem to see your face 

Chorus 
          C
I’m gonna sow the seed of deep devotion    
Am 
Fertilize it with emotion
F                                       G                   C
Water it with warm desire and then I’ll reap the harvest of love 
 
Verse 2
         C
Yes I was happy as a pig in spite  
       F                                C
Of the way that you looked at me when I met you at the village dance  
C
But you was in the ladies’ excuse me at the time  
                  F            G
I thought I would never have a chance 
    C
But you went off with Geoff our local chef
                    F           G
And you courted him down by the hedge
     C
Then up comes his wife with a long handled knife
    F                        G
And cut off his meat and two veg

Chorus
          C
I’m gonna sow the seed of deep devotion    
Am 
Fertilize it with emotion
F                                       G                   C
Water it with warm desire and then I’ll reap the harvest of love 

Verse 3
C                    
But you let me walk you home across Blatt's meadow  
      F                                G                                    
And I knew that with you I should be a hit    
       C 
'Cos I got an old cow to get up walk away
                   F                         G
So that you’d have somewhere nice and dry to sit 
C                                      F                   G
Side by side we will take a ride in my horse and buggy one day  
C 
And when the daylight ends and the night descends  
       F                   G
And my horse’ll run out of hay 
           C 
And I will kiss your lips those tempting lips   
    F                  G
The only ones that can thrill me 
            C 
And I would hold you tight ‘neath the stars so bright  
       F                          G
If the wife ever finds out she’ll kill me 

Chorus
          C
I’m gonna sow the seed of deep devotion    
Am 
Fertilize it with emotion
F                                       G                   C
Water it with warm desire and then I’ll reap the harvest of love
