A Bm
When I was a little boy I felt so alone
D A
Quiet country house that I had to call home
A Bm
Living with a couple folks rich millionaires
D A
Sat on their money Lord it seemed they didn't care

A Bm
Finally we moved to our own place
D A
Where I could walk around with a smile on my face
A Bm
And I knew in order to be a man
D A
I had to pull up my roots and move on in this land

A Bm
I'm gonna move away from here
D A
You can find me if you want to go there
A Bm
I'm gonna move away from here
D A
You can find me if you want to go there

A Bm
Came to a school in the big city
D A
Looked around at the lights and I thought they were pretty
A Bm
They told me to teach me to live by their rules
D A
So I wouldn't be nobody's fool

A Bm
I found out not too long
D A
Their rules wouldn't let me sing my song
A Bm
I knew in order to be a man
D A
I had to pull up roots once again and move on in this land

A Bm
I'm gonna move away from here
D A
You can find me if you want to go there
A Bm
I'm gonna move away from here
D A
You can find me if you want to go there

A Bm
I'm gonna move away from here
D A
You can find me if you want to go there
A Bm
I'm gonna move away from here
D A
You can find me if you want to go there

A Bm
Then I joined the college ranks
D A
There they said they'd teach me how to think
A Bm
Gave me books to read and papers to write
D A
They didn't know about this boy's come to fight

A Bm
But I found out after awhile
D A
Reading those books was making me loose my smile
A Bm
I knew in order to not conceal
D A
I had to play music and express what I feel

A Bm
I'm gonna move away from here
D A
You can find me if you want to go there
A Bm
I'm gonna move away from here
D A
You can find me if you want to go ther
