Intro: D  A  G  D

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


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

Chorus:
            D
I'm going back to the earth
            A
I'm going back to the earth
            G
I'm going back to work her
            D
I'm going back to the earth
I'm going back

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

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


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

            D

            A
I'm going back to the earth
            G
I'm going back to work her
            D
I'm going back to the earth


        Bm
We are animals
          D
We are wild
      G
We started with a motion at the bottom of the ocean
           A                                Gb
now its ringing from the tops of the trees


         Bm
We are animals
        Em
We are wild
        G                          
And to truly be forgiving we must all get back to living 
         A
with the land in harmony
  

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

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


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


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

Chorus:
            D
I'm going back to the earth
            A

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