F                Am       Gm
Air pollution fills my lungs
                    Eb
Look at who I have become
         Db                 F
Lost my shine like a city sun
F                Am       Gm
Mister blue and mister gray
                           Eb
All my seas are chocolate daze
         Db     F
Since I moved away

[Chorus]
 F
Dreamed of my songs on the radio
    Eb
But I ain't that yet got a way to go
Db                   F
And now I'm missing home
F
I left the back way call a stereo
Eb
Pack up my suitcase and hit the road
Db                   F
All alone
Gm
Mama taught me what I know
          F
She said life is hard if truth be told
           Eb
You don't always get the things you're owed
           Db
That's why I wear silver over gold
F
Mama taught me what I know
          Gm
She said life is hard if truth be told
             Eb
You don't always get the things you're owed
           Ab              Eb
That's why I wear silver over gold

[Verse]
F                           G
I swear the ocean's never cold
                             Eb
When you're only six years old
     G
My feet in if they feel the stones
Db                           F
Feet go in they feel at home
      Eb
Now home is just a little boring
  Bb    G         Gm
I carry it while I

[Chorus]
 F
Dreamed of my songs on the radio
    Eb
But I ain't that yet got a way to go
Db                   F
And now I'm missing home
F
I left the back way call a stereo
Eb
Pack up my suitcase and hit the road
Db                   F
All alone
Gm
Mama taught me what I know
          F
She said life is hard if truth be told
           Eb
You don't always get the things you're owed
           Db
That's why I wear silver over gold
F
Mama taught me what I know
          Gm
She said life is hard if truth be told
             Eb
You don't always get the things you're owed
           Ab              Eb
That's why I wear silver over gold
