I've been looking at some chords online and none of them seem right to me. When
I'm singing this acoustic by myself, it sounds great. Hope y'all like it...
CAPO 3
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Intro:
x2
(let A ring) G A D
I said I wanna touch the earth
I wanna break it in my hands
I wanna grow something wild and unruly
I wanna sleep on the hard ground
In the comfort of your arms
On a pillow of blue bonnets
In a blanket made of stars
...
Oh it sounds good to me
I said Cowboy take me away
Fly this girl as high as you can into the wild blue
Set me free oh I pray
D G A (let ring)
Closer to Heaven above and closer to you, closer to you
I wanna walk and not run
I wanna skip and not fall
I wanna look at the horizon
And not see a building standing tall
I wanna be the only one
For miles and miles
Except for maybe you
And your simple smile
Oh it sounds good to me
Yes it sounds so good to me
I said Cowboy take me away
Fly this girl as high as you can into the wild blue
Set me free oh I pray
Closer to Heaven above and closer to you, closer to you
...
I said I wanna touch the earth
I wanna break it in my hands
I wanna grow something wild and unruly
Oh it sounds so good to me
I said Cowboy take me away
Fly this girl as high as you can into the wild blue
Set me free oh I pray
Closer to Heaven above and closer to you,
closer to you
Closer to you
Cowboy take me away
...
Closer to you
I just let the A ring because the actual song fades out... um... Well there you
go, have fun! Great song, love the Dixie Chicks!
