G Whenever my head starts to hurt D Before it goes from bad to feeling worse C I turn off my phone, I get down low G And put my hand into the dirt I try to stop the world from moving so fast Try and get a grip on where I'm at To simplify this dizzy life And get my feet in the grass Chorus: G I'm going back to the earth D I'm going back to the earth C I'm going back to work G I'm going back to the earth The only explanation for a high rise Must be that everybody wants to get it high And Move on up to a deluxe apartment in the sky Well, The higher we go, the taller we grow old We lose sight of our land below You can have your place up in outer space Cause my home is where my food is grown Chorus: I'm going back to the Earth I'm going back to the Earth I'm going back to work I'm going back to the Earth I'm going back to the Earth I'm going back to the Earth I'm going back to work I'm going back to the Earth Em We are animals G We are wild C We started with a motion at the bottom of the ocean D Bm now its ringing from the tops of the trees Em We are animals (we are animals) A We are wild (we are wild) C And to truly be forgiven we must all get back to living D With the land in harmony Chorus: I'm going back to the Earth I'm going back to the Earth I'm going back to work I'm going back to the Earth I'm going back to the Earth I'm going back to the Earth I'm going back to work I'm going back to the Earth I'm going back to the Earth I'm going back to the Earth I'm going back to work I'm going back to the Earth I'm going back to the Earth I'm going back to the Earth I'm going back to work I'm going back to the Earth I'm going Back!
