Am F C
i wanna jump on a train ,
Dm F C
take me out of the same old thing
Am F C
i wanna feel no pain ,
Dm F C
take me south further down , take me south further down

Am F C
i wanna jump in a lake ,
Dm F C
take me out to an old blue spring ,
Am F C
i wanna swim in a cave ,
Dm F C
let the water cool me down , let the water cool me down

[ chorus ]
F C F
all the fish go swimming by they say goodnight
F C Dm G
and i wish the dimming sky would stay so bright

Am F C
i wanna hop on a plane
Dm F C
to any place where the tires swing
Am F C
i wanna home on the range
Dm F C
just to keep me on the ground , just to keep me on the ground

Am F C
i wanna drive in the rain
Dm F C
or in the sun it’s all the same
Am F C
i wanna step on the breaks
Dm F C
hope the lead will slow me down , hope the lead will slow me down

[ chorus ]
F C F
while the trucks go speeding past i’m going awful fast
F C Dm G
don’t have a million bucks for gas so ill make it last
F C F
all the clouds go floating by big , round , and white
F C Dm G
and i wish the dimming sky would stay so bright

Am F C
i wanna walk through the store
Dm F C
buy me something that i can’t afford
Am F C
make a bed on the floor
Dm F C
with the blankets that i found , with the blankets that i found

Am F C
ill awake in the street
Dm F C
reminiscing on a hazy dream
Am F C
wonder if i’m asleep
Dm F C
let the water wake me up , let the water wake me up
