[F] [G]
[C] [Ab] [F] [G]
[Ab] As I walk through the valley [Bb] where I harvest my grain, I [G] take a look at my wife and [Cm] realize
she's very plain, [Ab] but that's just perfect [Bb] for an Amish like me.
You [G] know I shun fancy things like electricity.
[Ab] At 4.30. in the morning [F] I'm milking cows. [G] Jebediah feeds the chickens [C] and Jacob plows. [Ab] Fool, and I've been milking [F] and plowing so long that [G] even Ezekiel thinks [C] that my mind is gone. [Ab] I'm a man of the land, [F] I'm into discipline. [G] Got a Bible in my hand [C] and a beard on my chin. But [Ab] if I finish all of my [F] chores and you finish thine, [G] then tonight we're gonna party [C] like it's 1699. [Ab] We've been [Bb] spending most our lives [G] living in an [Cm] Amish paradise. [Ab] I churn [Bb] butter once or twice [G] living in an [Cm] Amish paradise. [Ab] It's hard work [Bb] and sacrifice [G] living in an [Cm] Amish paradise. [Ab] We sell quilts [Bb] at discount price [G] living in an [Cm] Amish paradise. [Ab] A local boy kicked me [F] in the butt last week. I [G] just smiled at him [C] and I turned the other [Ab] cheek. I really don't care, [F] in fact I wish him well. [B] Cause I'll be laughing my head off when he's burning in hell. [Ab] But I ain't never punched a tourist [F] even if he deserved it. [G] An Amish with a [C] toot, you know that's unheard [Ab] of. I never wear buttons [F] but I got a cool hat. [G] And my homies agree I [C] really look good in black, [Ab] fool. If you come to visit [F] you'll be bored to tears. [G] We haven't even paid the phone [C] bill in 300 years. [Ab] But we ain't really quaint [F] so please don't point and stare. [G] We're just [C] technologically impaired. [Ab] There's no phone, no [F] lights, no motor car, [G] not a single [C] luxury. [Ab] Like Robinson [F] Crusoe, [G] it's as primitive as [C] can be. [Ab] We've been [F] spending most our [G] lives living in an [Cm] Amish paradise. [Ab] We're just [Bb] plain and simple guys [G] living in an [Cm] Amish paradise. [Ab] There's no [Bb] time for sin and vice [G] living in an [Cm] Amish paradise. [Ab] We don't [Bb] fight, we all play nice [G] living in an [Cm] Amish paradise. [Ab] Hitching up the [F] buggy, churning lots of [G] butter. Raise the barn on [C] Monday, soon I'll raise another. [Ab] Think you're really righteous, [F] think you're pure in heart. [G] Well I know I'm a [C] million times as humble as thou [Ab] art. I'm the pious guy, [F] the little omelette's wanna be [G] like. On my knees day and [C] night scoring points for the [Ab] afterlife. So don't be [F] vain and don't be whiny. [G] Or else my brother I might have [C] to get medieval on your [Ab] hiney. We've been [Bb] spending most our [G] lives living in an [Cm] Amish paradise. [Ab] We're all [Bb] crazy men and [G] knights living in an [Cm] Amish paradise. [Ab] There's no [Bbm] cops or traffic [G] lights living in an [Cm] Amish paradise. [Ab] But you'd probably think it [G] bites living in an [Eb] Amish paradise. [Ab] [Fm] [D] [Cm] [Ab] [Fm] [G]
