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

D
Once upon another time
D
Decided nothing good in dying
   G
So I would just keep on driving
D               A         D
Because I was free
