Big City
                Merle Haggard

    G                       C 
I'm tired of this dirty old city. 
  G                                     D
Entirely too much work and never enough play.
    G                            C 
And I'm tired of these dirty old sidewalks. 
      G                D            G
Think I'll walk off my steady job today.



Chorus:
G                           
Turn me loose, set me free, 
C                             G
somewhere in the middle of Montanna.
                              D
And gimme all I got comin' to me,
    G                             C                      G
And keep your retirement and your so called social security.
                 D                G
Big City turn me loose and set me free.


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

Chorus
