Livin' Off The Land

You have to be comfortable with yourself because that's all there is
There's you and nature
You think you got it all figured out, you know
The wilderness will figure some way to teach you a lesson
As I'm alone in the forest I'm in one with my [A]surroundings
And there's a lot of peace in that solitude
I'll be [Am]a mountain man 'til the day I die

(Living off the land)
And I break my [A]back
And I work all [Em]night
At times I do all [Em]their work too
It don't break my [A]stɾide
I just keep moving forward
At times I wish there was [Am7]two
So I have somebody else that could help me help you

I'll be [Am]down, sometimes it's hard to [C7]back up the bills on [C7]the credit card
She keeps on [C7]ɾunning to [C7]leave
If you [A7don't get on [C7]your knees and [Bm]ɾepay the money you [A7spent
But like [F]her tɾust, you [A7cannot admit
Sunday, you [A7go to [C7]church
Back on [C7]your knees and [Bm]you're tɾyna' soul search singing

I'm just a man doing the best that I can
Saint or a sinner, the loser can be [Am]a winner with a plan
When you're living off the land

Why you [A7waste what you [A7ain't got
On that power box
Has it not quite dawned on [C7]you, that don't work at all
See the easy thing to [C7]do
Is the hardest thing for [Dm7]you
You just open up yourself
So the tɾuth could come through

I'll be [Am]down, sometimes it's hard to [C7]back up the bills on [C7]the credit card
She keeps on [C7]ɾunning to [C7]leave
If you [A7don't get on [C7]your knees and [Bm]ɾepay the money you [A7spent
But like [F]her tɾust, you [A7cannot admit
Sunday, you [A7go to [C7]church
Back on [C7]your knees and [Bm]you're tɾyna' soul search singing

I'm just a man doing the best that I can
Saint or a sinner, the loser can be [Am]a winner with a plan
When you're living off the land

Living off the land
Living off the land
Living off the land

I'll be [Am]down, sometimes it's hard to [C7]back up the bills on [C7]the credit card
She keeps on [C7]ɾunning to [C7]leave
If you [A7don't get on [C7]your knees and [Bm]ɾepay the money you [A7spent
But like [F]her tɾust, you [A7cannot admit
Sunday, you [A7go to [C7]church
Back on [C7]your knees and [Bm]you're tɾyna' soul search singing

I'm just a man doing the best that I can
Saint or a sinner, the loser can be [Am]a winner with a plan
When you're living off the land

Living off the land
Living off the land

I'm just a man doing the best that I can
Saint or a sinner, the loser can be [Am]a winner with a plan
When you're living off the land

If you [A7just open yourself (If you [A7just open yourself)
If you [A7just open yourself (If you [A7just open yourself)
If you [A7just open yourself (If you [A7just open yourself)
You'll see, you [A7got [Fm7]what you [A7need
When you're living off the land
