[Am]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Hello again
Yes indeed my friend
I can tell
Goin' get togeth[Em]er a[Am]gain
I could be right
I could b ewrong
I feel nice [Em]when I [Am]sing this song
And I don't mind
Whatever [Em]happens is [Am]fine
[F]Baby [G]lik[Am]es to [F]keep
on [Am]playing . . .
What do I [Em]know, [Am]what do I know?
Wilder than the place we live in . . .
I'll take [Em]you there, [Am]I'll take you there
I [G]don't [Am]mind [F]some [Am]slight disorder . . .
Pull up the roots pull up the roots
And I [F]know [Am]ev'ry living creature . .
Pull up the roots, pull up the roots

[Verse 2]
And [Am]I know you
I understand what you do
Yes, indeed
I put the hat on my [G]head[Am]
Come outa [G]your [Am]mess
Bring [G]yourself [Am]in
I feel [Em]nice when [Am]I start to sing
And [G]I c[Am]an see
Ev'ryone [Em]else is like [Am]me

[Verse 3]
[Am]Towns [F]that dissapeared
[Am]completely . . .
Pull up the roost,
[Em]pull[Am] up the roots
Miles and miles [F]of [Am]end
less highway . . .
Pull up the roost,
[G]pul[Am]l up the roots
Colored lights and shiney curtains . . .
I'll take you there,
I'll take you there
Ev'rything [F]has been [G]forgiven [Am]. . .
Pull up [Em]the roost, [Am]pull up the roots

[Verse 4]
Well [Em]I have a good [Am]time . . . when I
go [Em]out of [Am]my mi[G]nd[Em]
[Am]And it's a wonde[Em]rful p[Am]lace[Em]
[Am]. . . and I can't wait[Em] to be t[Am]here
[Em]And [Am]I hear b[Em]eautif[Am]ul s[Em]ounds[Am]
. . . coming [Em]outa [Am]the [Em]ground[Am]
Gonna [Em]take us a [Am]while . . . but we'll [Em]go hundred[Am]s of times

[Am]Baby likes [F]to [Am]keep on
playing . . .
What d'you [Em]know?[Am]

I'll take you there, I'll take you there
And [F]I don't mind some
slight [Am]dis o[G]rder .[Am] . .
Pull up the [Em]roots [Am]pull up the roots
And no [G]more [Am]time for
talkin' [F]it [Am]over . . .
Pull up the [Em]roots, [Am]pull up the roots

[Verse 6]
Well I [Em]have a good [Am]time . . . when
I go [Em]out of [Am]my mi[Em]nd
[Am]And it's a wonde[Em]rful place[Am] . . . and I
[Em]can't wait to b[Am]e there
[Em]And I hear [Am]beaut[Em]iful sound[Am]s[Em]
[Am]. . . coming outa [Em]the [Am]ground[Em]
[Am]Someone must[Em]a been[Am] high [Em]. . [Am]. but
I [Em]guess it's [Am]alright
