C C D D F F F F G G
I see the shapes, I remember from maps
C C D D F F F F G G
I see the shoreline, I see the whitecaps
C C D D F F F F G G
A A baseball diamond, nice weather down there
C C D D F F F F G G
I see the schools, and the houses where the kids are
C C D D F F F F G G
Places to park, by the factories and buildings
C C D D F F F F G G
Restaurants and bars for later in the evening


Am Am G G F F G G
Then we come to the farmlands and the undeveloped areas
Am Am G G F F G G
And I have learned how these things work together
Am Am G G F F G G
I see the parkways that passes through them all
Am Am G G F F G G
And I have learned how to look at these things


Bb Bb F F Eb Eb
And I say, I wouldn't live there if you paid me
Bb Bb F F Eb Eb
I wouldn't live there, ooh, no siree
Bb Bb F F Eb Eb
I wouldn't do the things the way those people do
Bb Bb F F Eb Eb
I wouldn't live there if you paid me to


C C D D F F F F G G
I guess it's healthy, I guess the air is clean
C C D D F F F F G G
And I guess those people have fun with their neighbors and friends
C C D D F F F F G G
Look at that kitchen and all of that food
C C D D F F F F G G
Look at them eating, I guess it tastes real good


Am Am G G F F F F G G
They're growin' in those farmlands, then they bring it to the stores
Am Am G G F F F F G G
They put it in their car trunks, then they bring it back home


Bb Bb F F Eb Eb
And I say, I wouldn't live there if you paid me
Bb Bb F F Eb Eb
I wouldn't live there, ooh, no siree
Bb Bb F F Eb Eb
I wouldn't do the things the way those people do
Bb Bb F F Eb Eb
I wouldn't live there if you paid me to


C C D D F F F F G G
I'm tired of looking out the window of the airplane
C C D D F F F F G G
I'm tired of travelling, I want to be somewhere
C C D D F F F F G G
And it's not even worth talking about those people down there
