Big City C

Big City (Turn Me Loose)  Written by Merle Haggard and Dean Holloway

C                             F
I'm tired of this dirty old city
C                                        G7
Entirely too much work and never enough play
C                                      F
And I'm tired of these dirty old sidewalks
.          C           G7            C
Think I'll walk off my steady job today


CHORUS                        F                          C
Turn me loose set me free  somewhere in the middle of Montana
.                           G7
Gimme all I got coming to me
      C                            F                 C
And keep your retirement and your so called social security
                  G7                C
Big City turn me loose and set me free

.                                    F
Been working everyday since I was twenty
         C                                     G7
Haven't got a thing to show for anything I've done
.        C                                    F
There's folks who never work and they've got plenty
.             C                 G7         C
Think it's time some guys like me had some fun  (TO CHORUS)
