[Verse 1]
A E
City dweller, successful fella
Bm D
Thought to himself, "Oops, I've got a lot of money" (lot of money)
D/C# C#
Caught in a rat race terminally
A E
I'm a professional cynic but my heart's not in it
Bm D
I'm paying the price of living life at the limit (to the limit)
D/C# C#
Caught up in the century's anxiety
E
Yes, it preys on him (preys on him)
E
He's getting thin (getting thin) {Try a simple life}
[Chorus 1]
A E7 E D#
He lives in a house, a very big house in the country
D A
Watching afternoon repeats and the food he eats in the country
A E7 E D#
He takes all manner of pills and piles up analyst bills in the country
D A
Oh, it's like an animal farm, lots of rural charm in the country
[Verse 2]
A E7
He's got morning glory and life's a different story
Bm D
Everything's going Jackanory (Jackanory)
D/C# C#
Touched with his own mortality
A E
He's reading Balzac and knocking back Prozac
Bm D
It's a helping hand that makes you feel wonderfully bland
D/C# C#
Oh, it's the century's remedy
E
For the faint at heart
E
A new start (new start) {Try a simple life}
[Chorus 2]
A E7 E D#
He lives in a house, a very big house in the country
D A
He's got a fog in his chest, so he needs a lot of rest in the country
A E7 E D#
He doesn't drink, smoke, laugh, takes herbal baths in the country
D A
But you'll come to no harm on the animal farm in the country
E
In the country (Doo doo doo)
E
In the country (Doo doo doo)
E
In the country-y-y!
[Solo]
| A E | Bm | D D/C# | C# | x2
A E D A
Blow, blow me out I am so sad I don't know why
A E D A
Blow, blow me out I am so sad I don't know why
[Chorus 1 & 2]
A E7 E D#
Oh, he lives in a house, a very big house in the country
D A
Watching afternoon repeats and the food he eats in the country
A E7 E D#
He takes all manner of pills and piles up analyst bills in the country
D A
Oh, it's like an animal farm, lots of rural charm in the country
A E7 E D#
Oh, he lives in a house, a very big house in the country
D A
He's got a fog in his chest, so he needs a lot of rest in the country
A E7 E D#
He doesn't drink, smoke, laugh, takes herbal baths in the country
D A
Yes you'll come to no harm on the animal farm in the country
Ooh la la la
