[Verse]
(A)     A                    D               A
Oh when somebody does you wrong, what do you do?
                         D                      A
And you’re not the only one they’re making love to

[Refrain]
(A)          A                E
Oh when they let go of your hand
              F#m               D
You’ve got to get back to the land
              A             E          A
Cause it will never, never, never hurt you

[Verse]
(A)         A                           D           A
When you’re so-called friends no longer want you around
                                             D                 A
You’re not up with the trends like the other friends they’ve found

[Refrain]
(A)          A                  E
If you don’t fit in to their plans
        F#m               D
Oh just get back to the land
              A             E             A
Cause it will never, never, never let you down

[Bridge]
Bm                         A
      Your mother’s always loved you
E                          A
      She wraps you in her arms
Bm                             A
      And feeds you milk and honey
D                             E
      And keeps you safe from harm

[Verse]
(E)      A                  D                 A
And when nobody appreciates you  where do you go?
                                  D                A
Do you pack your bags and catch a train to I-Don’t-Know?

[Refrain]
(A)     A                  E
Oh when they don’t understand
              F#m               D
You’ve got to get back to the land
              A             E             A
Cause it will never, never, never let you go
                           E
Oh when they don’t understand
              F#m               B
You’ve got to get back to the land
              A             E             A
Cause it will never, never, never let you go
