Wide Open Spaces
Dixie Chicks
Verse 1:
[D] Who doesn't [G] know what I'm [D] talking about
Who's never left [G] home, who's never [D] struck out
To find a [G] dream and a life of their [D] own
A [G] place in the clouds, a foundation [A] of stone
Verse 2:
[D] Many pre-[G] cede and many will [D] follow
A young girl's [G] dream no longer [D] hollow
It takes the [G] shape of a place out [D] west
But what it [G] holds for her, she hasn't [A] yet guessed
|Chorus:
|She needs [D] wide [Em] open [G] spaces [A]
|[D] Room to [Em] make her big [G] mistakes [A]
|She needs [D] [Em] new [G] faces
|She [A] knows the high [D] stakes [Em] [G] [A]
Verse 3:
[D] She traveled this [G] road as a [D] child
Wide eyed and [G] grinning, she never [D] tired
But now she [G] won't be coming back with the [D] rest
If these are [G] life's lessons, she'll take [A] this test
Chorus:
Bridge:
[D] As her folks drive [G] away, her dad yells, [D] "Check the oil!"
Mom stares out the [G] window and says, "I'm [D] leaving my girl"
She said, "It [G] didn't seem like that long a-[D] go"
When she [G] stood there and let her own [A] folks know
|Chorus:
|She needed [D] wide [Em] open [G] spaces [A]
|[D] Room to [Em] make her big [G] mistakes [A]
|She needs [D] [Em] new [G] faces
|She [A] knows the high [D] stakes
Outro:
She [Em] knows the highest [G] stakes
She knows the [A] highest [D] stakes [Em] [G]
She [A] knows the highest [D] stakes [Em] [G]
She [A] knows the highest [D] stakes
