Verse 1:
FF Piano Chord 
                       BbBb Piano Chord 

I'm tired of this dirty old city.
FF Piano Chord 
                                     CC Piano Chord 

Entirely too much work and never enough play.
FF Piano Chord 
                          BbBb Piano Chord 

And I'm tired of these dirty old sidewalks.
FF Piano Chord 
              CC Piano Chord 
              FF Piano Chord 

Think I'll walk off my steady job today.

Chorus:
FF Piano Chord 
                           BbBb Piano Chord 
                            FF Piano Chord 

Turn me loose, set me free, somewhere in the middle of Montanna.
CC Piano Chord 

And gimme all I got comin' to me,
FF Piano Chord 
                            BbBb Piano Chord 
                  FF Piano Chord 

And keep your retirement and your so called social security.
CC Piano Chord 
                   FF Piano Chord 

Big City turn me loose and set me free.

Verse 2:

Been working everyday since I was twenty.
Haven't got a thing to show for anything I've done.
There's folks who never work and they've got plenty.
Think it's time some guys like me had some fun.

Chorus
