City vs. Country Jonathan Richman
City Vs. Country by Jonathon Richman off the album "You Must Ask the Heart"
standard tuning, barre chords
I wanna [F]live close to down[Bb]town to be near my [F]friends
I want to [F]be close to them and still be [C]out by the trees in the [Gm]wind[C]
Havin' both will be [Dm]hard to find I'm [Am]sure, but then a[Bb]in't that the way of
the [Bbm]world
I want the [F]city, but I [C]want the country, [F]too.
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/jonathan_richman/city_vs_country_crd.html )
I wanna [F]be with my friends by the [Bb]fire and the [F]starlight
But I want [F]music, mu[C]sic in my [Gm]life, Yes! [C]
I want a [Dm]bar-hopping music [Am]scene and I wanna [Bb]pick from ten or [Bbm]fifteen
I want the [F]city, but I [C]want the country [F]too.
Musical Interlude (same as verse)
[Dm]My mind is [Bb]quiet.[Dm] When my thoughts are[Bb] slow.
[Dm]I've got to [Bb]learn what I'm[Gm] wanting to [C]know
I need to [Dm]live in the ancient [Am]world if I'm going to [Bb]do what I want to [Bbm]do.
I want the [F]city but I [C]want the country [F]too.
I'll never [Dm]have both moon and [Am]sun. But one never [Bb]knows just [Bbm]one.
I want the [F]city, but I [C]want the country [F]too.
