Am Bm 4x 
E

Am                          Bm    E
Whenever I need to leave it all behind
Am                       Bm     E
Or feel the need to get away-ay-ay
Am                    A
I find a quiet place, far from the human race
Am         D7
Out in the country

G          D                Bm  Em
Before the breathin' air is gone
           Bm Em          Am                 D
Before the sun  is just a bright spot in the night-time
G             D              Bm  Em
Out where the rivers like to run
         Bm  Em             Am                D        G
I stand alone and take back somethin' worth rememberin'

Am                           Bm    E
Whenever I feel them closing in on me
Am                       Bm E
Or need a bit of room to move
Am                          A
When life becomes too fast, I find relief at last
Am         D7
Out in the country

G          D                Bm  Em
Before the breathin' air is gone
           Bm  Em         Am                 D
Before the sun  is just a bright spot in the night-time
G             D              Bm  Em
Out where the rivers like to run
         Bm  Em             Am                D        G
I stand alone and take back somethin' worth rememberin'
