Big City
                Merle Haggard

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



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


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

Chorus
