G Gmaj7 G6 G/D
G Gmaj7 G6 G/D G Gmaj7 G6 G/D
Because he called the forest brother
D D7sus4 D D7sus4 G Gmaj7 G6 G/D
Because he called the earth his mother
C C/B Am D7 G Gmaj7 G6 G/D
They drove him out into the rain
D D7sus4 D D7sus4 G Gmaj7 G6 G/D
Some people even said the boy from the country was insane
G Gmaj7 G6 G/D G Gmaj7 G6 G/D
Because he spoke with fish in the creek
D D7sus4 D D7sus4 G Gmaj7 G6 G/D
He tried to tell us that the animals could speak
C C/B Am D7 G Gmaj7 G6 G/D
Who knows, perhaps they do
D D7sus4 D D7sus4 G Gmaj7 G6 G/D
How do you know they don't just because they've never spoken to you
D D7sus4 D D7sus4 G Gmaj7 G6 G/D
Boy from the country, he left his home when he was young
D D7sus4 D D7sus4 G Gmaj7 G6 G/D
Boy from the country, he loves the sun
D D7sus4 G/D D7 G Gmaj7 G6 G/D
G Gmaj7 G6 G/D G Gmaj7 G6 G/D
He tried to tell us that we should love the land
D D7sus4 D D7sus4 G Gmaj7 G6 G/D
We just turned our heads and laughed see we did not understand
C C/B Am D7 G Gmaj7 G6 G/D
Sometimes I think the boy from the country is the only one who sees
D D7sus4 D D7sus4 G Gmaj7 G6 G/D
Because the boy from the country doesn't wanna see the forest for the trees
D D7sus4 D D7sus4 G Gmaj7 G6 G/D
Boy from the country, he left his home when he was young
D D7sus4 D D7sus4 G Gmaj7 G6 G/D
Boy from the country, he loves the sun
G Gmaj7 G6 G/D D D7sus4 G/D D7
