D5
Once upon another time
D5
Somebody's hands who felt like mine
G5
Turned the key and took a drive
    D5
Was free
D5
Highway curve, the sun sank low
D5
Buckley on the radio
G5
Cigarette was burning slow
   D5
So breathe
 
     D5
Just yellow lines and tire marks
     G5
And sun-kissed skin and handle bars
    D5                                A5
And where I stood was where I was to be
 
   D5
No enemies to call my own
   G5
No porch light on to pull me home
    D5
And where I was is beautiful
  D5           A5
Because I was free
 
D5
Once upon another time
D5
Before I knew which life was mine
G5                              D5
Before I left the child behind me
D5
I saw myself in summer nights
D5
And stars lit up like candle light
G5                                D5
I make my wish but mostly I believed
 
   D5
In yellow lines and tire marks
G5
Sun-kissed skin and handle bars
    D5                                A5
And where I stood was where I was to be

D5
Once upon another time
D5
Decided nothing good in dying
   G5
So I would just keep on driving
D5               A5         D5
Because I was free
