[Intro]
C  Cmaj7  C7  F  D7/F#
 
[Verse 1]
C        Cmaj7       C7
  Motion pictures on my TV screen,
F                      D7/F#
  A home away from home     livin' in between
   C       Cmaj7      C7
But I hear some people  have got their dream
F  D7/F#
       I've got mine
 
[Verse 2]
C           Cmaj7          C7
  I hear the mountains are doing fine
F                 D7/F#
  Morning glory is    on the vine
        C      Cmaj7
And the dew is fallin'
C7
  The ducks are callin'
F  D7/F#
       Yes, I've got mine
 
[Verse 3]
C                 Cmaj7
  Well, all those people
C7
  They think they got it made
F                         D7/F#
But I wouldn't buy, sell, borrow or trade
C            Cmaj7  C7
  Anything I have      to be like one of them
F  D7/F#                          [C]
        I'd rather start all over again
 
[Instrumental]
C  Cmaj7  C7  F  D7/F#    x3
 
 
[Verse 4]
C           Cmaj7                     C7
  Well, all those headlines, they just   bore me now
F                                 D7/F#
  I'm deep inside myself, but I'll     get out somehow
         C             Cmaj7
And I'll stand before you
    C7                F  D7/F#
And I'll bring a smile       to your eyes
C        Cmaj7

Think its D/F# rather than F#/D. But not sure.....

The song is played in a dropped tuning of DGCFAD with the run on the D chord so in normal tuning it will sound much the same with the c chord run
