Mother, daughter, father, son
           Bm             E              A     B    A   B
Guess that everything you heard about is true
       Em7       E   A
So you ain't got any family

Ain't ya glad nobody's waitin' up for you?

       A
When I dream    
      F#m
On my own
      D       E       D   A
I'm alone but I ain't lonely
      E       C#          F# F#m        D
For a dreamer night's the on-ly time of day
         Bm     E7           Em7  F#m
When the city's finally sleepin'
       Bm          E7    C#m  F#m
All my thoughts begin to stray
        C      G            F#m       B7      E
And I'm on the train that's bound for Santa Fe


        A
And I'm free
         F#m
Like the wind
         D     E       D A
Like I'm gonna live forever
       E       C#       F# F#m           D
It's a feeling time can ne-ver take away
      E7                   A
All I need's a few more dollars
        D     E7      C#
And I'm outta here to stay
            Bm
Dreams come true
          E7
Yes, they do
         A  
In Santa Fe

Where does it say you gotta live and die here?
D             E     D         E       A
Where does it say a guy can't catch a break?
A   
Why should you only take what you're given?
F#m                       Dm
Why should you spend your whole life livin'
F#m
Trapped where there ain't no future
D
Even at seventeen
F#m                                   D
Breakin' your back for someone else's sake
       G   
If the life don't seem to suit ya
Abm                   C#
How 'bout a change of scene?
F#m
Far from the lousy headlines
        E
And the deadlines in between

If I found you would you let me come and stay?
        Bm      E7  A
I ain't gettin' any younger
      D       E7    C#
And before my dyin' day
       Bm
I want space
         E7
Not just air
        A           C#m
Let 'em laugh in my face
        F#m
I don't care
A      Bm
Save a place
        D
I'll be there


A  B  A  B

So that's what they call a family

Ain't ya glad you ain't that way?
         Bm             E7                 A
Ain't ya glad you got a dream called Santa Fe?
