First appeared on "Landscapes"; this is based on the "unplugged" version
on "Family Gathering".(although "unplugged" Valdy is probably an oxymoron)

The city musician plays like a magician
C                        C/G            G7
Though he plays a little different than me

He's stretched in the girth and he knows what he's worth
G7                                           C  
He's a wizard to listen to and a pleasure to see

C           C/G            C           C/G
Oh the city musician shows me what I'm missing
C                   C/G           G7
With my head so far away from the town

I'll likely grow old and I could die from cold
G7                                               C
This move to the mountains ain't quite like it's told

Chorus:
           F
'Cause you can't watch the TV you can't watch the movies
    Em                          Am
You just watch the trees if the moon gives you light
    Dm           Dm7M              Dm7            Dm6
You can't eat in restaurants your needs get to be wants
     G7
Your body gets strong and you're breathing good air
C          
Yes the city musician shows me what I'm missing
                           G7
I'm slower to think up new chords
But I won't get sad 'bout these things I ain't had
                                           C
There's a big hunk of land that I'm headed towards
                 F
Chorus:Where you can't watch the TV...
     G7                                         C   F
Your body gets strong and you're breathing good air
 (G7)                                 C
