D      G D    G    A    D
G         A        D
I know I owe you a better time
G         A             D
Then the way that I've been
G                A        D
But something's messing with my mind
G            A       D
And it's not giving in

They say that I should want to be
A man who leads us all
But every time I look I see
Another leader fall.

        Em          Bm
So I'm gonna sit in a green field
    Em             D       Bm
And fly a big red kite I'm gonna
Em                   Bm
Send my mind up the string and I'm
Em           G A D
gonna get it right.

They say that I should want to have
A big bank account
What Uncle Sam don't take from me
Man I don't need to count.

They say that I should want to stand
For what I don't believe
I'm sitting thinking to myself
What kind of man could leave.
