Beyond the Mall Lyrics & Tabs by David Rovics
Beyond the Mall
guitar chords lyrics
There are places there are hills
They're not just called hills, they're really hills
There are places there are forests
Not like "Twelve Pines," but really forests
There are places where the birds sing
And you can hear the eagle call
I know they're out there
Somewhere beyond the mall
There are places there are rivers
Not surrounded by concrete, but living rivers
With fish in them and frogs and little tadpoles
With ducks and deer drinking by the sinkholes
There are places far away
The trees turn colors in the fall
I know they're out there
There are places far away
The trees turn colors in the fall
I know they're out there
Somewhere beyond the mall
There are places you can see the sky
Not neon signs and billboards, but just the sky
There are places with dirt on the ground
Without the miles of asphalt, not a car around
Where on and in the soil
Good little critters crawl
I know they're out there
Somewhere beyond the mall
There are places like that, and things don't have to be like this
I mean not cosmetic changes, things really don't have to be like this
There are places where people know their neighborhood
Where people live there and they think that life is good
There are places like that
Somewhere on this spinning ball
I know they're out there
Somewhere beyond the mall
There are places that I know I've gotta find
Otherwise I will undoubtedly lose my mind
Otherwise I'll end up just like you
On ridlin or prozac or whatever things you do
I'm going where the water is blue
And the trees are so tall
I know they're out there
Somewhere beyond the mall
