D A E F#m 2x

[Verse 1]
D            A      E           F#m
  Bless the farmer planting his seeds
D        A        E      F#m
  Pull away that poison ivy
D            A      E            F#m
  I dig all day to make a clearing
   D             A        E              F#m
  Trouble goes away, the clouds are disappearing
D          A        E                F#m
  I'm so alert, the only side of the dirt
    D      A           E     F#m
  Another day of some honest work

[Chorus]
D      A    E   F#m
E-I, E-I, E-I-O-O
D            A       E       F#m
We like, we like to watch it grow
D         A      E      F#m
You-I, me-I, she-I must know
      D           A           E       F#m
When everything around us is going dim

[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
D           A          E           F#m
  Then one morning, I woke from my dream
D         A        E         F#m
  Saw my landlord staring at me
  D          A         E             F#m
  He said, "Pay me or you'll have to leave
       D            A          E  F#m
  You got 'til the end of the day"

[Chorus]
D      A    E   F#m
E-I, E-I, E-I-O-O
D           A   E       F#m
We got, we got self-control
D         A      E      F#m
You-I, me-I, she-I must go
        D              A       E  F#m
'Cause nothing really lasts forever

[Bridge]
E          F#m   A           E
Oh, at the empty end of the road
       F#m           A     E
You've seen all the piles of gold
  F#m    A   F#m    E
I wanna stay right here

[Verse 3]
D               A         E       F#m
  Don't got to tell me, I already know
D            A       E             F#m
  It starts beautiful, then goes casino
D                 A       E         F#m
  Oh, place your bets on what comes next
    D           A        E      F#m
  I bet we all gonna get ice cream

[Chorus]
D      A    E   F#m
E-I, E-I, E-I-O-O
D           A  E      F#m
We are, we are on our own
D         A      E      F#m
You-I, me-I, she-I must go
  D       A     E   F#m
Into the great unknown
D      A    E   F#m
E-I, E-I, E-I-O-O
D           A  E      F#m
We are, we are on our own
D         A      E      F#m
You-I, me-I, she-I must go
  D       A     E   F#m
Into the great unknown
D      A    E   F#m
E-I, E-I, E-I-O-O
D           A  E      F#m
We are, we are on our own
D         A      E      F#m
You-I, me-I, she-I must go
  D       A     E   F#m
Into the great unknown
