(G) (Fj7) (C) (G)
Good earth rider (Em)singing,

(G)I can laugh and (Em)I can cry,
And (G)I can feel the (Fj7)pain.
(G)Good earth rider (Em7singing
What his (G)two
good (G7)eyes can (C)see,
That across the hills from (G)Placerville
The (Am7)wind (D)(hold) sure can feel (G)free. (Fj7) (C) (G)
In the stinking concrete (Em)cities
Oh, I (G)never do feel (Fj7)clean.
The (G)air is dirt and the (Em)ladies' skirts
Are e(G)nough to make me (Fj7)mean.
(G)Good earth riders, (Em7look around,
And I (G)think that (G7)you'll a(C)gree,
That across the hill from (G)Placerville

Good earth rider (Em)singing,
And his (G)songs are all too (Fj7)clear.
(G)I'm alone, (Em)love me please,
Does (G)anybody (Fj7)hear?
(G)Good earth riders (Em)all the same,
(G)Looking (G7)to be (C)free,
And across the hill from (G)Placerville
The (Am7)wind (D)(hold) sure calls to (G)me: (Fj7) (C) (G)
Yeah, a(C)cross the hill from (G)Placerville
The (Am7)wind (D)(hold) sure can feel (G)free.
(Fj7) (C) (G) (Fj7) (C) (G) and fade out.
