D G

I dream of wide open spaces, far away places

D A

Where a man can be a man

D G

I dream of lookin’ out my window, out where the grass grows

D A D

Where no concrete spoils the land

Chorus:

G

What are we comin’ to

D

What are we gonna do

A

When all the things that are good are gone

G

Have we all forgotten

D

The things that make life worth livin’

A

Like Texas, family and home

I think about all the time I spent sittin’ under an oak tree

And smelling the fresh air Lord and feelin’ the breeze

I think about all the people livin’, always takin’, never givin’

With no care for a brother man or his need

Chorus

Solo

Now the hills hold the highways, planes fill the skyways

It seems everything’s been touched by a man’s progress

Yeah if progress is what they call it, then that’s what it is I guess

But all in all it seems to me a big ol’ mess

Chorus

Yeah, have we all forgotten

The things that make life worth livin’

Like Texas, family and home
