Out In The Country chords
Three Dog Night 1970 **
Am Bm 4x
[E]
[Am] Whenever I need to leave it [Bm]all [E]behind
[Am] Or feel the need to get [Bm][E]away-ay-ay
[Am] I find a quiet place, [A] far from the human race
[Am] Out in the [D7][D]country
[G] Before the [D]breathin' air is [Bm]gone[Em]
Before the [Bm]sun [Em] is just a [Am]bright spot in the [D]night-time
[G] Out where the [D]rivers like to [Bm]run[Em]
I stand [Bm]alone[Em] and take back [Am]somethin' worth [D]rememberin'[G]
[Am] Whenever I feel them closing [Bm]in on [E]me
[Am] Or need a bit of room to [Bm][E]move
[Am] When life becomes too fast, [A] I find relief at last
[Am] Out in the [D7][D]country
[G] Before the [D]breathin' air is [Bm]gone[Em]
Before the [Bm]sun [Em] is just a [Am]bright spot in the [D]night-time
[G] Out where the [D]rivers like to [Bm]run[Em]
I stand [Bm]alone[Em] and take back [Am]somethin' worth [D]rememberin'[G]
