As cars go by I cast my mind's eye
Over back packs on roof racks
Beyond the horizon
Where dream makers
Working white plastic processors
Invite the unwary
GTo reach for the pie in the sky
CmGo fishing my boy!
Bsus4 B Cdim Bsus4 B Em C D
We set out in the spring
DWith a trunk full of books about everything
Bsus4About solar devices
And how nice natural childbirth is
CdimWe cut down some trees
And we trailed our ideals
Through the forest glade
CdimWe dammed up the stream
And the kids cooled their heels
In the fishing pool we'd made
Em Em/DWe held hands and we exchanged bands
C DAnd we practically lived off the land
You adopted a fox cub
DWhose mother was somebody's coat
Bsus4You fed him by hand
And then snuggled him down
DIn the grandfather bed while I wrote
CdimWe grew our own maize
And I only occasionally went into town
CdimTo stock up on antibiotics
Bsus4 BAnd shells for the shotgun that I kept around
I told the kids stories while you worked your loom
C DAnd the sun went down sooner each day.
G*Chapter six in which Eeyore has a birthday
And gets two presents
D GDaddy...come on dad
Eeyore the old grey donkey stood by the side
Of the stream and he looked at himself in the water
D"Pathetic" he said, "That's what it is"
Bsus4 B D"Good morning Eeyore" said Pooh
"Oh" said Pooh, He thought for a long time
Then the leaves all fell down
Our crops all turned brown
DIt was over
As the first snowflakes fell
DI realized all was not well in the camp
CdimThe kids caught bronchitis
The space heater ran out of diesel
CdimOne weekend a friend from the East,
Bsus4 BRot his soul, stole your heart
I said "Fuck it then
Em/DTake the kids back to town
C DMaybe I'll see you around"
G C D G Am7 G C G/B
And so...leaving all our hopes and dreams
C Am7 DTo the wind and the rain
GTaking only our stash
Left our litter and trash
CAnd set out on the road again
G/B Am7 GOn the road again
On the road again
D G EmOn the road
Bye Bye Daddy, Bye Daddy
You can bring Pearl she's a darn nice girl
But don't bring Liza
