Transplant Song Chords

(ver. 1)
The Mother Hips
                         (walk-up to)   (through-out song)
D           A          Em             G  
I've been a transplant too
D           A          G         D      
Anyways I'm not mad at you
      D                 A                   Em               G   
But I get compared with all of you making a thousand bucks a day
   D                   A             G            D
My head's all wrong to live here any longer anyway


D               A        Em      G
I should've been born in North California
D        A          G                 D    
Northern California fifty wintertimes ago
D               A        Em      G
Ohh   ohooh       Oooohoh       oh oh 
D        A           G              D
Ohh   ohooh       Oooohoh       oh oh



Note:  When Tim plays it acoustic, he does a walk-down G to the F#m, 
he doesn?t seem to play the full bar chord.

     G      F#m           D          A       
I am moving away from the place I am from
        G               F#m             D         A       
Because I don't like to squeeze where I don't fit in
        G             F#m          D       G
It's my birthright to stay but I'm leaving anyway
D     A       G          D              
North country take me in


 
D           A                 Em               G   
My mother's always telling me that I don't work enough
        D                        A             G       D   
She says, "You don't work enough" but it isn't true
D                      A                     Em           G   
It just burns me up to think she thinks that I don't work enough
D                    A              G     D   
No one could see the kind of work I do


D     A                     Em       G   
I am a native in a stranger land
D                     A         G     D   
There's a stranger in my box of sand
D              A           Em           G   
I would gladly accept him, extending my hand
D                      A          G          D   
But he looks at me and he doesn't understand


     G      F#m           D          A       
I am moving away from the place I am from
        G               F#m             D         A       
Because I don't like to squeeze where I don't fit in
        G             F#m          D       G
It's my birthright to stay but I'm leaving anyway
D     A       G          D              
North country take me in
 
D     A       G     (hammer on A string)     D              
North country take me in !!
