_ _ _ _ _ _ [Fm] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ [F] _ _ [Fm] Where in hell can [Cm] you go? _ _ _
_ _ [Db] Far from the things that you [Ab] know _ _ _ _ _ [Db] Far from the _ sprawl of concrete
[Ab] _ That keeps crawling its [Eb] way _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ About a [Ab] thousand _ [F] miles a [Fm] day _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ [Ab] _ _
[F] _ [Fm] Take one last look [Cm] behind _ _ _ _ _ _ [Db] Commit this to memory [Ab] and mind
_ But _ _ [Db] _
don't miss this wasteland [Ab] This _ terrible _ place when [Eb] you leave
_ _ You _ _ _ _ keep your heart [G] off your [F] _
[Fm] sleeve _ _ Oh _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _
motherland, _ _ cradle [Eb] _
me
_ _ Close [Db] my eyes, _ lullaby me to [Ab] sleep _ _ [Bb] Keep me safe, _ lie with [Ab] me
Stay _ beside me, don't [Eb] go _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Fm] _ Don't you go _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
From my five and dime [C] queen _ _ Tell _ [Db] _ _ _
me what have you [Ab] seen? _
_ _ [Bb] _ The lost and the _ _ [Ab] avarice The _ bottomless _ cavernous [Eb] greed _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Is that [Ab] what you [F] see?
_ [Cm] _ _
Oh _ _ [Ab] _ motherland, _ _ _ cradle [Eb] me _ _ _ Close [Db] my eyes, lullaby me to [Ab] sleep _ _ _
Keep me [Db] safe, _ _ lie with [Ab] me _ Stay beside me, don't [Eb] go _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Db] It's your _ _ happiness, _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Ab] my one most of _ all
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Cm] And [Db] for that I'd do [Bb] _ _
anything at [Eb] all
_ _ Oh mercy me, _ _ _ if you want [Db] the best of it _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] If you want the most of all _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Now if [Db] there's anything [Bb] that I can do [Eb] _ at all _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

_ _ [Fm] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Now come on, shotgun [Cm] _
bright _ _ _ What [Db] _ _
makes me envy [Ab] your _ life?
_ _ [Bb] _ _ [Db] _
Faceless, _ _ _ nameless [Ab] _ _
Innocent and _ blameless and [Eb] free
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
You tell [Ab] me what that's [Fm] like to be _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Oh [Ab] _ _
motherland, _ _ _ [Eb] cradle me _ _ _ Close [Db] my _ eyes, lullaby me [Ab] to sleep
_ _ _ _ Keep [Db] me safe, _ lie with [Ab] me Stay beside me, don't [Eb] go
_ _ _ _ _ _ Don't you go
_ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
Motherland, _ _ cradle [Eb] _
me _ _ Close my [Db] _
eyes, lullaby me to [Ab] sleep
_ _ _ Keep me [Db] _
safe, _ lie with [Ab] me Stay beside _ me, don't [Eb] go
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
