        C                             Dm
    My soul is in the mountain,   my heart is in the land

         F                G                C
    I'm lost here in the city, There's so much I don't understand

                C               Dm                  F     G   C 
    There's a quiet desperation,  Coming over me, Coming over me

                  G            F            C   
    I've got to leave I can't stay another day

                  G      F           C
    There's an emptiness   inside of me

             G          F            C
    I can't bear the loneliness out here

  G                                   F                F               C
    There's another place I've got to be, .. Another place I've got to be

        C                                Dm
    I long for you Dakota The smell of sweet grass on the plain

       F              G             C
    I see too much meanness, And I feel too much pain

                    C               Dm                   F     G   C
    And there's a quiet desperation,   Coming over me, Coming over me

                  G            F            C
    I've got to leave I can't stay another day

                  G      F           C
    There's an emptiness   inside of me

             G         F             C
    I can't bear the loneliness out here

  G                                   F                F               C
    There's another place I've got to be, .. Another place I've got to be
