Intro: E  B  A  E

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


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

Chorus:
            E
I'm going back to the earth
            B
I'm going back to the earth
            A
I'm going back to work her
            E
I'm going back to the earth
I'm going back

E - B - A - E
Tu-ru-du-du-du-du-du-du-dudu

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


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

Chorus:
            E
I'm going back to the earth
            B
I'm going back to the earth
            A
I'm going back to work her
            E
I'm going back to the earth


        Dbm
We are animals
          E
We are wild
      A
We started with a motion at the bottom of the ocean
           B                                Ab
now its ringing from the tops of the trees


         Dbm
We are animals
        Gbm
We are wild
        A                          
And to truly be forgiving we must all get back to living 
         B
with the land in harmony
  

           E
I'm going back to the earth
           B
I'm going back to the earth
I'm going back

E - B - A - E
Tu-ru-du-du-du-du-du-du-dudu


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


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

Chorus:
            E
I'm going back to the earth
            B
I'm going back to the earth
            A
I'm going back to work her
            E
I'm going back to the earth
I'm going back
