Dixie Chicks - Wide Open Spaces
E Esus/A E Esus E
Who doesn't know what I'm talking About
E Esus/A E Esus E
Who's never left home, who's never struck out
A E Esus E
To find a dream and a life of their own
A B
A place in the clouds, a foundation of stone
E Esus/A E Esus E
Many precede and many will follow
E Esus/A E Esus E
A young girl's dream no longer hollow
A E Esus E
It takes the shape of a place out West
A B Bsus B
But what it holds for her, she hasn't yet guessed
Chorus:
E F#m A B
She needs wide open spaces
E F#m A B
Room to make her big mistakes
E F#m A B
She needs n-ew faces
E F#m A B
She knows the high stakes
E Esus/A E Esus E
She travelled this road as a child
Esus/A E Esus E
Wide eyed and grinning, she never tired
A E Esus E
But now she won't be coming back with the rest
A B Bsus B
If these are life's lessons, she'll take this test
E F#m A B
She needs wide open spaces
E F#m A B
Room to make her big mistakes
E F#m A B
She needs n-ew faces
E
She knows the high stakes
F#m A B
She knows the high stakes
solo
E Esus/A E Esus E
As her folks drive away, her dad yells, "Check The Oil!"
Esus/A E Esus E
Mom stares out the window and says, "I'm Leaving My Girl"
A E Esus E
She says, it didn't seem like that long ago
A B Bsus B
When she stood there and let her own folks know
E F#m A B
She needs wide open spaces
E F#m A B
Room to make her big mistakes
E F#m A B
She needs n-ew faces
E
She knows high stakes
F#m A B
She knows the high stakes
