The Chicks (Dixie Chicks) – Wide Open Spaces (Guitar)

 D           G            D         G
Who doesn't know what I'm talking about

 D                G                  D
Who's never left home, who's never struck out

            G                        D
To find a dream and a life of their own

   G                         A
A place in the clouds, a foundation of stone

D       Em                  D
Many precede and many will follow

D               Em               D
A young girl's dreams no longer hollow

              G                   D
It takes the shape of a place out west

             G                          A
But what it holds for her, she hasn't yet guessed

         D     Em    G    A  D        Em            G      A
She needs wide open spaces    Room to make her big mistakes

         D Em    G        A              D    Em G A
She needs  new faces She knows the high stakes

 D                Em         D
She traveled this road as a child

 D             Em                  D
Wide eyed and grinning, she never tired

             G                             D
But now she won't be coming back with the rest

              G                           A
If these are life's lessons, she'll take this test

         D     Em    G    A  D        Em            G      A
She needs wide open spaces    Room to make her big mistakes

         D Em    G        A              D           Em            G   A
She needs  new faces She knows the high stakes She knows the high stakes

                    G                     D
As her folks drive away, her dad yells, "Check the oil!"

                    G                     D
Mom stares out the window and says, "I'm leaving my girl"

               G                          D
She said, "It didn't seem like that long ago"

          G                           A
When she stood there and let her own folks know

          D     Em    G    A  D        Em            G      A
She needed wide open spaces    Room to make her big mistakes

         D Em    G        A              D           Em            G   A
She needs  new faces She knows the high stakes She knows the high stakes
