CAPO: 3rd Fret
INTRO: G  
              Da da da da da da da da
Some day I'll be a farmer, working the land
I wish I was a farmer, to work with my hands
'Cause it's been Dtoo long a ride, too high the fare
Well, I Embuilt and climbed a Cmountain, but it GwasDn't Gthere
And I been Emlooking all aCround, looked GeveDryGwhere
Well, I Embuilt and climbed a Cmountain, but it GwasDn't Gthere
It isn't Emthere, dum ta dum
It isn't here, it isn't Dthere, nor anyGwhere
I'm gonna pick an apple, right from the tree
I'm gonna eat the apple, 'cause it grew there for me
And it's been too Dlong a ride, too high the fare
Well, I Embuilt and climbed a Cmountain, but it GwasDn't Gthere
And I been Emlooking all aCround, looked GeveDryGwhere
To Embuild and climb a Cmountain, if it GisDn't Gthere
It isn't Emthere, dum ta dum
It isn't here, it isn't Gthere, nor DanyGwhere
I wish I was a farmer, working the land
Some day I'll be a farmer, to work with my hands
'Cause, it's been Dtoo long a ride, too high the fare
You know I Embuilt and climbed a Cmountain, but it GwasDn't Gthere
And I been Emlooking all aCround, looked GeveDryGwhere
Well, I Embuilt and climbed a Cmountain, but it GwasDn't Gthere
And I been Emlooking all aCround, looked GeveDryGwhere
To Embuild and climb a Cmountain, if it GisDn't Gthere
It isn't Emthere, dum ta dum
It isn't here, it isn't Gthere, nor DanyGwhere
I wish I was a farmer, working the land
Some day I'll be a farmer, to work with my hands
Da da ti da ti dum dum ti dum da da Dda Gdum
