Intro
D D/C# Bm A G A D D D/C# Bm A G A D
D D/C# Bm Bm/A
The people in this city call me country,
G A D
Because of how I walk and talk and smile.
D D/C# Bm Bm/A
Well I don't mind them laughing in the city,
G A D
But the country folks all say I'm citified.
D D/C# Bm Bm/A
The fighting men they say that I'm a coward.
G A D
Because I never push no one around.
D D/C# Bm Bm/A
Gentle people call me trouble-maker,
G A D
Cause I'll always fight and stand my ground.
G F#m
Funny I don't fit.
Em F#m G A D
Where have all the average people gone?
D D/C# Bm A G A D
D D/C# Bm Bm/A
Some pious people point and call me sinner,
G A D
Because to them I've never seen the light.
D D/C# Bm Bm/A
Other folks think of me as a preacher.
G A D
I'm just doing what I think is right.
D D/C# Bm Bm/A
The wealthy people think that I am a hobo,
G A D
Lean and hungry, writing mournful songs.
D D/C# Bm Bm/A
And the poor, poor people think I am a rich man,
G A D
But really, I'm just trying to get along.
G F#m
It's funny I don't fit.
Em F#m G A D
Tell me where have all the average people gone?
D D/C# Bm A G A D
D D/C# Bm Bm/A
And the government has given me a number,
G A D
To simplify my birth and life and death.
D D/C# Bm Bm/A
And still my woman thinks I'm awful important,
G A D
Like the moon the stars the sea the sky and breath.
G F#m
Funny I don't fit.
Em F#m G A D
Where have all the average people gone?
G F#m
Yes, it's funny I don't fit.
Em F#m G A D
Where have all the average people gone?
G F#m
Honey I don't fit,
Em F#m G A D
Where have all the average people gone?
