Capo II



G               C9           G
It'd take about 900 miles round trip 
               C9       G  C9  G C9   G
To walk on the Gulf of Mexico
                C9           G
We'd jump in my daddy's beat up truck
          C9                G   C9  G C9 
Drive all night and don't look back
F              C
Momma she'd go crazy 
                           D
Just wonderin' where we're at



Chorus: 

C9           G
Seventeen in Abilene
       C9                        D
You and me, biggest sky you've ever seen
C9                     G
There're so many miles of open road
    C9                G
And so many places still left to go
C9                   D  G
Seventeen, runnin' from Abilene


G               C9                 G
It doesn't take much for us to drive away
             C9                       G    C9  G 
Cause all we need's just a little bit of faith
            C9               G
I got fifty bucks in my pocket
             C9                G   C9  
It'll get us there, but maybe not back
F              C                G
The sun is shining from head to toe 
F              C                    D
And I don't think I'll ever let you go



C9           G
Seventeen in Abilene
       C9                        D
You and me, biggest sky you've ever seen
C9                     G
There're so many miles of open road
    C9                G
And so many places still left to go
C9                   D  G
Seventeen, runnin' from Abilene


F                      C
I see the stars in your eyes
F                           C       D
Let's start the rest of our lives tonight



C9           G
Seventeen in Abilene
       C9                        D
You and me, biggest sky you've ever seen
C9                     G
There're so many miles of open road
    C9                G
And so many places still left to go
C9                   D  C9
Seventeen, runnin' from Abilene
                        D  G
Seventeen, runnin' from Abilene
