City Boy

G               Bm               C              C 
       I hear a voice               and I hear a sound. 
            The sound of my     shoes        oh, shuffling outta town. 
       Too many people                  too many cars. 
     Take me to Memphis,        Mercury or       Mars. 


                G               F#               Em             G/D 
  Cause I wanna go                     where the buffalo        roam. 
                C               C                G              G 
     I'm just a city boy           lookin' for a home. 


                G               Bm               C              C 
        I can't breathe.                 I can't see. 
            The city's              no place for me. 
            And I can't          seem to find my way. 
       I'm just existing             from day to day. 


                G               F#              Em             G/D 
Cause I want to be                     where my soul   can run free. 
                C               C               G               G 
Well, I'm just a city boy         lookin' for a home. 


                D       D/E     D/F#            G               G 
          Now I don't   want to be           no prisoner. 
                C               C               G               G 
          And I sure don't wanna be          no slave.  
                F#      G       Am              Em              G/D 
      I want to look out at the night   and see stars    in the sky... 
                Am              Am              D               D 
     The Little Dipper            and the Milky Way. 


                G               Bm              C               C 
        I can't sleep.                 It's too loud. 
            And everywhere    I go        there seems to be a crowd. 
        And I'm tired of all     these concrete streets. 
      I want to feel the dirt       up under my feet. 


                G               F#              Em             G/D 
  Cause I wanna go          somewhere where the buffalo        roam. 
                C               C               G              G 
     I'm just a city boy          lookin' for a home.
