[D] [A] [Em]
[A] [D]
The people [A] in the city [B] call me [Em] country because [A] of how I walk and [D] talk and smile.
Well, I don't [C#m] mind them [A] laughing [Em] in the city, [A] but the country folks all say I'm [D] a city fag.
The fighting men [A] may say that [B] I'm a [Em] coward because [A] I never push no [D] one around.
Gentle [C#m] people call me [F#m] [Em] troublemaker because
[A] I'll always fight and [D] stand my ground.
[G] Funny I [D] don't fit [Em] [F#] where have [G] all the [A] average [D] people gone?
Some biased [A] people point and call [G] me a [Em] sinner because [A] to them I've never [D] seen the light.
Other folks [A] think of me [Em] as a preacher.
[A] I'm just doing what I [D] think is right.
The wealthy [A] people think that I [G] am a hobo, [Em]
[A] lean and hungry, writing [D] mournful songs.
And the poor, poor [C#m] people think I [G] am a rich man, [A] but really I'm just trying to get [D] along.
[G] Yes, it's funny I [D] don't fit.
[E] Tell me where [F#] have [G] all the [A] average [D] people gone?
[E] [B]
[C#] [F#m] [B] [E] And the government [B] has given me [F#m] a number to [B] simplify my birth and life [E] and death.
And still my woman [B] thinks I'm [F#m] all important, [B] like moon and sun, sea and sky [E] and breath.
Yes, [A] it's funny I [E] don't fit.
[F#m] Where [G#m] have [A] all the [B] average people [E] gone?
[A] Funny I [E] don't fit.
