[Verse 1]

D           D/G            D             D/G
Who doesn't know what I'm talking about,
D                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        D/G                 D             D/G
Many precede and many will follow,
D              D/G               D
A young girls dreams no longer hollow,
               G                   D
It takes the shape of a place out west,
         G                        A
What it holds for her she hasn't yet guessed,


[Chorus]

She needs,

D    D/G    G      A
Wide open spaces,
D      D/G             G         A
Room to make her big mistakes,
D       D/G     G       A
She needs new faces,
D   D/G      G   A
She knows the high stakes


[Verse 2]

D                 D/G         D       D/G
She traveled this road as a child,
D               D/G                D       D/G
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 lessons, she'll take this test


[Chorus]

She needs,

D    D/G    G      A
Wide open spaces,
D      D/G             G         A
Room to make her big mistakes,
D       D/G     G       A
She needs new faces,
D   D/G      G   A
She knows the high stakes


[Verse 3]

D                  D/G                   D               D/G
As her folks drive away her dad yells "check the oil",
D                    D/G                    D
Moms stares out the window and says "I'm leaving my girl",
             G                          D
She says "it didn't seem all that long ago,
           G                          A
When she stood there and let her own folks know"


[Chorus]

She needs,

D    D/G    G      A
Wide open spaces,
D      D/G             G         A
Room to make her big mistakes,
D       D/G     G       A
She needs new faces,
D   D/G      G   A
She knows the high stakes
