[A] For I like the life that's free [D] This town is not for me

I thought I'd like it here but [B] now I know that [E] I was wrong
[A] I'm all fenced in by people [D] I feel the [A] need of scope
[B] At night I wake up dreaming that [E] I'm hanging to a rope
I've [A] got those old [E] rope and [A] saddle blues And now I know what life I'm [E] gonna choose
