This may not sound the same as the video, but this is how Jeffery plays it live
with his guitar only.
Standar Tuning, No Capo. (The strumming can be simple 4-count down strokes)
Intro:-----------------------------------------------------------------
Verse 1:---------------------------------------------------------------
Woke up this morning, at my grandma s house.
And I saw a cornfield through the window.
I said, Grandma, Grandma, can I go play in that cornfield
She said you can do what ever you want, you re like twenty-one.
Chorus:----------------------------------------------------------------
I went in a cornfield today,
I went in a cornfield,
( )
I went in a cornfield today and met Akbar.
Verse 2:---------------------------------------------------------------
Akbar is awesome cause he never calls you names,
He never really calls you anything cause he s just a corn
But I like pretending, that I can talk to him, and he can talk to me
And he s kinda funny and he knows lots of jokes when I do that
Chorus:---------------------------------------------------------------
I went in a cornfield today,
I went in a cornfield,
( )
I went in a cornfield today and met Akbar.
Verse:----------------------------------------------------------------
Sat down for dinner, at my grandma s house
When she lay down a plate of Akbar
I nearly cried when I saw my friend had died
Cadd9 (strum hard for the beat of the drum)
Grandma killed him for dinner.
Chorus:---------------------------------------------------------------
I went in a cornfield today,
I went in a cornfield,
I went in a cornfield today and met Akbar.
I went in a cornfield today,
I went in a cornfield,
I went in a cornfield today and met Akbar.
( continues)
(Field today) And met Akbar
(Field today) And met Akbar
