[Verse]
               Am    G      C 
I said I wanna touch the earth 
        Am       G     C 
I wanna break it in my hands 
        Am       G     C    F     G 
I wanna grow something wild and unruly 
        Am           G    C 
I wanna sleep on the hard ground 
       Am         G    C 
In the comfort of your arms 
     Am     G       C      F 
On a pillow of blue bonnets 
     G 
In a blanket made of stars 
      F      C       G 
Oh it sounds good to me, 
  
I said..
[Chorus]
       C    F   G 
Cowboy take me away 
                 Am 
Fly this girl as high as you can 
  F           G 
Into the wild blue 
       C    F    G 
Set me free oh I pray 
          Am 
Closer to heaven above and 
F         G 
Closer to you 
             F Am C 
Closer to you

[Verse]
        Am       G      C 
I wanna walk and not run 
        Am       G      C 
I wanna skip and not fall 
        Am      G       C 
I wanna look at the horizon 
F       G 
And not see a building standing tall 
        Am     G       C 
I wanna be the only one 
    Am    G        C 
For miles and miles 
Am         G     C 
Except for maybe you 
F       G 
And your simple smile  
      F      C       G 
Oh it sounds good to me 
       F         C       G 
Yes it sounds so good to me
[Chorus]
       C    F   G 
Cowboy take me away 
                 Am 
Fly this girl as high as you can 
  F           G 
Into the wild blue 
       C    F    G 
Set me free oh I pray 
          Am 
Closer to heaven above and 
F         G 
Closer to you 
             C F G 
Closer to you
