Verse 1:
     G               D
As a child on the farm
       G             D
I was warned of the wiles of the city
C   D   C    D

         G           D
Of that demon disguise
            G            D
There's the dirt in the skies of the city

Bridge:

Chorus:
          D       Em        D            Em
Well they say the proximity warps their minds
            D        Em                D       Em
'Til they're shooting one another just pass the time
       Em      D
And we live it appears
        C            D
Both in spite and in fear of the city

Verse 2:
      G            D
I was constantly told
      G            D
How our lives were controlled by the city
C    D    C   D
      G             D
How they keep us in debt
      G                   D
With the trends that they set it's a pity
C    D    C   D
         D         Em     D          Em
Now the beautiful people in the magazines
         D         Em     D           Em
Got the normal ones living beyond their means
         Em          D
And the things that they said
         C          D
Made me go in my head to the city

D   D   Em  D      C

Verse 3:
G                D
When I finally came
G                    D
There's some things still the same in the city
C   D   C   D
     G               D
Your still under the thumb
     G               D
Of the rich and the young and the pretty

Bridge:
C   D   C   D

Chorus:
           D        Em           D           Em
Well they weren't much different than we might act
           D        Em          D           Em
If there was that many others that closely packed
Em               D
It's an ancient idea
C                     D
But it struck me so clear in the city
