Intro: C  G  F  C

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


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

Chorus:
            C
I'm going back to the earth
            G
I'm going back to the earth
            F
I'm going back to work her
            C
I'm going back to the earth
I'm going back

C - G - F - C
Tu-ru-du-du-du-du-du-du-dudu

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


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

Chorus:
            C
I'm going back to the earth
            G
I'm going back to the earth
            F
I'm going back to work her
            C
I'm going back to the earth


        Am
We are animals
          C
We are wild
      F
We started with a motion at the bottom of the ocean
           G                                E
now its ringing from the tops of the trees


         Am
We are animals
        Dm
We are wild
        F                          
And to truly be forgiving we must all get back to living 
         G
with the land in harmony
  

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

Tu-ru-du-du-du-du-du-du-dudu


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


              C
It's where I found spirituality
         G
It's in everything that surrounds me
              F
I can't spell God g-o-d
            C
I spell it n-a-t-u-r-e

Chorus:
            C
I'm going back to the earth
            G

            C
I'm going back to the earth
I'm going back
