G                  D           C          G
We've been living in the city such a long time
G                            D
Maybe we should live by the water
G                 D                   C              G
I'll shape up and you'll fill out and we could buy a house
G                    D
Maybe even have us a daughter

[Chorus]
          C               D              G
Cause the city brings the man out in the man
        Cm7                     G
And it makes it hard for me to understand
     D
Your feelings

[Verse]
G                D                  C           G
I'm so tired of catching trains and coming home late
G                         D
I might even try and cook dinner
G                  D                C           G
I'll make contacts in the trees the boss says I could
G                              D
He thinks I should live by the water

[Chorus]
          C               D              G
Cause the city brings the man out in the man
        Cm7                     G
And it makes it hard for me to understand
     D
Your feelings

G                 D                  C              G
Shut the door and dim the lights and fix yourself a drink
G                         D
I got something we should consider
G                 D           C
We've been living in the city such a long time
G                           D
Maybe we should live by the water
