Elton John (Elton John / Bernie Taupin)
D7 D G
D7 D
When I look back boy I must have been green
G
Bopping in the country, fishing in a stream
D7 D
Looking for an answer trying to find a sign
G
Until I saw your city lights honey I was blind
B7
They said get back honky cat
Better get back to the woods
E7
Well I quit those days and my redneck ways
D7 D G
mmmmmm oh the change is gonna do me good
D7 D G
B7
You better get back honky cat
Living in the city ain't where it's at
E7
It's like trying to find gold in a silver mine
D7
It's like trying to drink whisky,
D G
oh, from a bottle of wine
D7 D G
D7 D
Well I read some books and I read some magazines
G
About those high class ladies down in New Orleans
D7
And all the folks back home well, said I was a fool
G
They said oh, believe in the Lord is the golden rule
B7
They said get back honky cat
Better get back to the woods
E7
Well I quit those days and my redneck ways
D7 D G
mmmmmm oh the change is gonna do me good
D7 D G . . .
B7
They said get back honky cat
Better get back to the woods
E7
Well I quit those days and my redneck ways
D7 D G
mmmmmm oh the change is gonna do me good
D7
They said stay at home boy, you gotta tend the farm
G
Living in the city boy, is going to break your heart
D7
But how can you stay, when your heart says no?
G
How can you stop when your feet say go?
B7
They said get back honky cat
Better get back to the woods
E7
Well I quit those days and my redneck ways
D7 D G
mmmmmm oh the change is gonna do me good
B7
You better get back honky cat
Living in the city ain't where it's at
E7
It's like trying to find gold in a silver mine
D7
It's like trying to drink whisky,
D G
oh, from a bottle of wine
D7 D G
