I spent my first few years with Ellie
Cm
She drove me over to the freeways
A#7
On the eastern side of town
C#

Fb
And she spoke without a sound
G#
And she said
[CHORUS:]
C# G#
Don't you think it's better
C#
Livin' in the country

Spending our time waiting for the weather

And all our friends can come together here

I was lost inside a frown
Fb
'Til I got to grassy ground
G#
And asked a man
[CHORUS:]

Don't you think it's better
