Someday I'll be a farmer, workin' the land I wish I was the farmer, to work with my hands
Cause [F] it's been too long a ride, too high the fair
[Gm] Well I built and [Eb] climbed a mountain but it [Bb] wasn't fair
And [Gm] I've been lookin' [Eb] all around, looked [F] everywhere
[Bb] [Gm] Well I built and [Eb] climbed a mountain but it [Bb] wasn't fair
It [Gm] isn't there, dum-da-dum, it isn't here, it [Bb] isn't there [F] Nor [Bb] anywhere
I'm gonna pick an apple, right from the tree
I'm gonna eat the apple cause it grew there for me
And [F] it's been too long a ride, too high the fair
[Gm] Well I built and [Eb] climbed a mountain [Bb] but it wasn't fair
And I've [Gm] been lookin' all [Eb] around, looked [Bb] everywhere

Dum-da-dum, it isn't here, it [Bb] isn't there [F] Nor [Bb] anywhere
