[Intro]
G - D - C - G

[Verse]
                       G
Whenever my head starts to hurt
                                  D
Before it goes from bad to feeling worse
               C
I turn off my phone, I get down low
                   G                            D
And put my hand into the dirt

                                   G
I try to stop the world from moving so fast
                     D
Try to get a grip on where I'm at
                C
To simplify this dizzy life
                    G                         D
And get my feet in the grass

[Chorus]
                G
I'm going back to the earth
                D
I'm going back to the earth
                C
I'm going back to work her
                G
I'm going back to the earth
I'm going back

G - D - C - G
Tu-ru-du-du-du-du-du-du-dudu

[Verse]
                  G 
The only explanation for a high rise
                  D
Must that everybody wants to get high
                 C                        G                              D
Move on up to a deluxe apartment in the sky

                        G
The higher we go, the taller we grow
                            D
We lose sight of our land below
                             C
You can have you place, up in outerspace
                 G                                                    D
Cause my home is where my food is grown

[Chorus]
                 G
I'm going back to the earth
                 D
I'm going back to the earth
                 C
I'm going back to work her
                 G
I'm going back to the earth

            Em
We are animals
             G
We are wild
          C
We started with a motion at the bottom of the ocean
             D                                                     B
now its ringing from the tops of the trees

               Em
We are animals
             Am
We are wild
              C
And to truly be forgiving we must all get back to living
                D
with the land in harmony

                  G
I'm going back to the earth
                 D
I'm going back to the earth
I'm going back

G - D - C - G
Tu-ru-du-du-du-du-du-du-dudu

G
I listen to the whistle in the wind
                                       D
Its blending in with the song of the birds
                                     C
The messages remind me who I am
                  G
That I'm a child of the earth

                    G
It's where I found spirituality
            D
It's in everything that surrounds me
                   C
I can't spell God G-O-D
                G
I spell it N-A-T-U-R-E

[Chorus]
                 G
I'm going back to the earth
                 D
I'm going back to the earth
                 C
I'm going back to work her
                 G
I'm going back to the earth
I'm going back

G - D - C - G
Tu-ru-du-du-du-du-du-du-dudu
