Verse 1
D D/G D D/G
Who doesn't know what I'm talking about,
Who,s never left home who's never struck out,
To find a dream and a life of their own,
A place in the clouds a foundation of stone.
D D/G D D/G
Many precede and many will follow,
A young girls dreams no longer hollow,
It takes the shape of a place out west,
What it holds for her she hasn't yet guessed,
Chorus
She needs,
Wide open spaces,
Room to make her big mistakes,
She needs new faces,
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,
But now she won't be coming back with the rest,
If these are life lessons, she'll take this test
Chorus
She needs,
Wide open spaces,
Room to make her big mistakes,
She needs new faces,
She knows the high stakes
Verse 3
D D/G D D/G
As her folks drive away her dad yells "check the oil",
Moms stares out the window and says "I'm leaving my girl",
She says "it didn't seem all that long ago,
When she stood there and let her own folks know"
Chorus
She needs,
Wide open spaces,
Room to make her big mistakes,
She needs new faces,
She knows the high stakes
