  			F       Bb 
Take me away 
    F                Bb 
Cause I don't wanna stay 
       F             Bb         Dm  C 
In the canyon longer than I have to 

        F            Bb 
Well it don't matter where 
     F             Bb 
Just get me out of here 
   F               Bb           Dm  C 
I don't care if I gotta turn around 

   Bb 
Oh cause for me I would rather be 
       C 
Under a tall tree 

With a better woman 
     Bb 
On an old street 
                      C  Bb  Am  G 
Tell me what I need to do 

     F            Bb 
Oh Hey look at me babe 
    F                  Bb 
I'm walking down your street 
  F          Bb              Dm    C 
I can see you talking to you maker 

     F             Bb 
With a bow in your hair 
    F              Bb 
A trickle in your stare 
      F                 Bb      Dm  C 
And a shiny penny in your shoes 

     Bb 
Cause for me I would rather be 
        C 
Under a tall tree 

With a better woman 
      Bb 
On an old street 
                      C   Bb  Am  G 
Tell me what I need to do 

F            Bb       F           Bb 
Now it's 12: 22 and I got a better view 
 F           Bb              Dm         C 
From my tree top way up on the mountain 
    F                Bb 
And there's gold all around 
   F              Bb 
And I can see your town 
   F             Bb 
And I know you've been 
  Dm               C 
Waiting there for me 

         Bb 
Is it just for me? 

So let's go 

Nevermind the weather 
       C 
On the high road 
                            Bb 
Yesterday is nothing like tomorrow 
                               C  Bb  Am  G 
There's nothing more that we can do oh 
              C  Bb  Am  G 
Oh so what do I do 
    F  
Woooh
