CHORUS
Am7 D9
Pushed around this dirty old town
Had to move so many times, it makes my head spin 'round
Just what is it that keeps me here
Its hard to say, the answer's not real clear
Dm E
I guess i'll cast a spell that's hard to break
Am7 D9
Like the silver ice on a mountain lake
Dm E
I'd like to get out but I don't have a heart
Am D
To leave all my friends and make a new start
* *4th time

VERSE
Am7 D9
There's a fly buzzin' round my eight by twelve home
Where I can spend the afternoons all alone
Don't need much, don't you know
I don't need a TV or a VCR or a touch tone telephone
Dm E
All you people, you try to sell the land
Am7 D9
You don't see the problem, you don't seem to understand
Dm E
All you doin' is makin' one big mess
Am7 D
Cause bigger isn't better, and money isn't happiness
