Livin In A Yurt by Joe Stewart
Livin In A Yurt
Capo:no capo
[Chorus]
G C D
I’ve found myself livin’ in a yurt.
G C D
Round walls, yes, but floor above the dirt.
G D C
You may wonder what I do there.
G D C
I’ll tell you ‘cause I like to share.
[Verse 1]
C D
We usually eat
C D
Something fermented for dinner.
C D
Out in the chicken coop
C D
We’re looking for a winner.
C D
Everyone is knitting
C D
Right where they’re sitting.
C D
Out in the garden
C D
The weeding is starting,
C D
But use only your hands.
C D G
‘Cause at the yurt, all’s organic lands.
[Chorus]
G C D
I’ve found myself livin’ in a yurt.
G C D
Round walls, yes, but floor above the dirt.
G D C
Some folks wonder: “Is it a tent?”
G D C
I tell them: “No it isn’t.”
[Verse 2]
C D
Compost my trash,
C D
Subsist on heirloom,
C D
To minimize our footprint,
C D
The children share a room.
C D
Crap in a bucket,
C D
Cloth on a loom,
C D
Get a mycologist,
C D G
To find and gather a mushroom.
[Chorus]
G C D
I’ve found myself livin’ in a yurt.
G C D
Round walls, yes, but floor above the dirt.
G D C
Some folks wonder: “Is it a teepee?”
G D C
I tell them: “No, I can’t take it with me.”
[Verse 3]
C D
Dry my clothes sustainably,
C D
Odor my pits with patchouli,
C D
Commune with a duck,
C D
Drive a big ol’ truck,
C D
But to minimize the irony,
C D G
I do it only periodically.
[Chorus]
G C D
I found myself livin’ in a yurt.
G C D
I eat goat milk ice cream for dessert.
G C D
It’s a round house, yeah.
G C D
It’s not canvas, no. (Why do you keep asking that?)
G D C
It’s a wood cabin, man!
G D C
Why so obstinate, damn?
[Verse 4]
C D
I drive the streets in a Prius:
C D
Rural town, no subway or bus.
C D
Maybe I’ll dig a sweat lodge,
C D
Built a barn with lumber hodge-podge.
C D
Kids in 4H,
C D
Sewin’ a skirt.
C D
That’s just me,
C D G
Livin’ in a yurt.
[Chorus]
G D C
I’ve found myself livin’ in a yurt.
G D C
Round walls, yes, but floor above the dirt.
G D C
You may have wondered what I do there.
G D C
I’ll told you ‘cause I like to share.
[Outro]
G C D
Well-fed, crafty, alert,
C D G
Livin’ in a yurt.
