[Verse 1]
    E             E7        A
I'm tired of this dirty old city.
  E                                     B7
Entirely too much work and never enough play.
        E               E7       A
And I'm tired of these dirty old sidewalks.
           E            B7          E
Think I'll walk off my steady job today.

[Chorus]
E                     E7     A                            E
Turn me loose, set me free, somewhere in the middle of Montana.
                              B7
And gimme all I got comin' to me,
    E                             A                   E
And keep your retirement and your so called social security.
                  B7              E
Big City turn me loose and set me free.

[Verse 2]
E                 E7              A
Been working everyday since I was twenty.
        E                                     B7
Haven't got a thing to show for anything I've done.
        E               E7                    A
There's folks who never work and they've got plenty.
            E                  B7           E
Think it's time some guys like me had some fun.

[Chorus]
E                     E7     A                            E
Turn me loose, set me free, somewhere in the middle of Montana.
                              B7
And gimme all I got comin' to me,
    E                             A                   E
And keep your retirement and your so called social security.
                  B7              E
Big City turn me loose and set me free.

[Outro]
    E             B7              E
Big City turn me loose and set me free.
