written by Troy Seals & Max D. Barnes

performed by Waylon Jennings.


Capo on the 2nd fret.


Verse 1:
      B 
	Everybody's looking for someway in
             E                   B
	I'm looking for someway out
	             
	I've been wasting my time,standing in line
             F#                    B
	If this is what it's all about


Verse 2:
      B 
	All i've got is a job that i don't like
               E                      B  
	And a woman that don't understand
     
	So tonight in the bar,i'll get in my car
             F#                       B
	And take off for the promise land


Chorus:
          E                                              B
	Drinkin' and dreamin',knowing damn well i can't go
              F#                              B
	I'll never see Texas,L.A.,or ol' Mexico
             E                                         B
	But here at this table,i'm able to leave it behind
          F#                                                B   
	Drink till i'm dreaming a thousand miles out of my mind


Verse 3:
      B       
	This suit and this tie is just a disguise
      E                    B
	This ain't really me

	Some people were born to be tied down
              F#                      B
	Some people were born to be free

	
Verse 4:
      B 
	When i look down the road she don't know
          E                    B 
	How it gets under my skin

	She's got my body but my heart and soul
            F#                    B
	Are out there riding the wind


Chorus (x2).
