The Rat Race

G A D

D A

Sometimes I want to hide out,

G A

Where nobody knows.

D A

Take my things and find some place,

G A

That no one ever goes.

D A

Walk away from this rat race,

G A

Let the hair grow on my face,

D A

Disappear from the human race,

G A D

And walk out on the world.

D A

I hate rent.

G A

And I can't stand the government

D A G

It's taking half of everything I earn.

D A

A simple life is all I crave

G A

And I'd do more than rant and rave

G A D

If I could turn my back upon the world

Chorus:

D A

I'd be a recluse!

G A

They'd call me "The hermit".

D A G

That's exactly what I'd want to be.

D A

To heck with everyones demands.

G A

I wouldn't have to make a stand.

G A D

I could turn my back upon the world.

Chorus:

D A

I'd be a slob.

G A

I'd make myself a real hog.

D A G

I'd smell so bad even I would cringe.

D A

I'd never wash. I'd never shave.

G A

There'd be no one who could complain,

G A D

If I turn my back upon the world.

Chorus:

D A G

Sometimes I want to hide out where

D

nobody knows.
