GGGGGGGG
Because he called the forest brother
DD7DD7GGGG
Because he called the earth his mother
CCAmD7GGGG
They drove him out into the rain
DD7DD7GGGG
Some people even said the boy from the country was insane
GGGGGGGG
Because he spoke with fish in the creek
DD7DD7GGGG
He tried to tell us that the animals could speak
CCAmD7GGGG
Who knows, perhaps they do
DD7DD7GGGG
How do you know they don't just because they've never spoken to you
DD7DD7GGGG
Boy from the country, he left his home when he was young
DD7DD7GGGG
Boy from the country, he loves the sun
DD7GD7GGGGGGGGGGGG
He tried to tell us that we should love the land
DD7DD7GGGG
We just turned our heads and laughed see we did not understand
CCAmD7GGGG
Sometimes I think the boy from the country is the only one who sees
DD7DD7GGGG
Because the boy from the country doesn't wanna see the forest for the trees
DD7DD7GGGG
Boy from the country, he left his home when he was young
DD7DD7GGGG
Boy from the country, he loves the sun
