Bm       A              G            A
She said goodbye at the cattle-guard gate

G                A                       D      A
Hoping she would find her a place in the world

         D                A
With her mind made up and tears in her eyes

Bm        A        G          A
It almost made her daddy cry

        G               A                       D
He said don't forget to call when you get there girl.

Bm                            G                D
Driving on that two lane road hoping she might find

Bm                                     G             A
A whole lot more waiting up ahead than what she left behind

       D  A       G    A
Moving up-stairs, down-town

           A           G
Life's too short to be hanging around

D     A                 G            A          Bm      A
She's eighteen and it's time she got out of the woods

G                 A7                        D A G A
She's getting out while the getting's good

D                    A  
All bills paid and a room with a view

Bm    A          G           A
She's unpacked a dish or two

G                A               D     A
She just got her phone turned on today

          D                      A
There's a big, old world waiting just outside

   Bm             A           G
As she's thumbing through the classifieds

G                   A
Looking for work at any old job's okay

Bm                                 G                D
Driving on that cross-town freeway hoping she might find

Bm                                     G             A

She's getting out while the getting's good

        D                   A
And she lost her job at the grocery store

        Bm        A               G     A
And the wolf came knocking at the door

G                    A              D
Red notice said they turned off her telephone

D                        A            Bm           A             G
There's nothing left for her to do so she's packed up a thing or two

G                    A                D
Loaded her car down, now she's headed home

Bm                            G                D
