[Verse 1]
       D                       A
This phone's growin' in to my ear
         G                   D
I made three hundred calls today
         A                         
Though yours is the only voice that
 Em
 I want to hear
    A               Em         A
I gotta make me a living some way
   D                C/G
I know you hate me doing this
    Bm               E
You say I'm selling out
     G                   E7
But how in the hell is a man 
supposed to live
   A
Selling what it's all about

[Verse 2]
      D                     A
We dreamed our dreams in college 
girl
      G                   D
Back then we thought we should
          A                    Em
And we promised that we would save 
the world
 A                  Em        A
Way back then we thought we could

I know you love your teaching now
       Bm            E
But I wish you'd understand
        G               E7
There aren't that many jobs around
      A
I'm doing the best I can

[Bridge]
     Bm
I'm here with forty other guys 
crowded in a room
 C/G                             
Makin' a living selling the moon, 
       Bm     G    Em  A
and rustic dreams in June
   Bm
I used to hate the city now I'm 
dwelling in it
  C/G
I used to love the country now I'm 
selling it
           Bm                   
I'm doing well at it, that's the 
  G      A
hell of it

[Verse 3]
   D                  A
I said that we would find a farm
     G               D
And live out on the land
      A                     Em
It strange how dreams come back at 
us
    A                Em      A
In ways that we had never planned

  D              C/G
Here I'm selling real estate
      Bm          E
And laughin' at myself
   G                 E7
If I can't have my country dream
           E7               A
I'm gonna sell it out to somebody 
else

Darlin' don't get mad at me

I'm doing this for you

It's really not so sad to see

Aw please don't push me any more

It's gonna work out fine

I know I said I'd quit before
          Em                    A 
But just give me a little more
