Let me go, far away
E E O A A A
Somewhere they wont never find me
O E E E E O E E I EAnd tomorrow wont remind me of today
A O O O O E I E O O AWhen the citys finally sleepin
E E I I A E E IAnd the moon looks old and gray
A E O O O O O A A I get on a train thats bound for Santa FeI E O A A I A O U O A A EAnd Im gone and Im done
A I O A I O ENo more runnin, no more lyin
O O E U I O O E INo more fat, old men denyin me my pay
O O E A O E E I E AJust a moon so big and yella
U A O O O I A E A It turns night right into day
I U I I I O ADreams come true
E A O E U EYeah, they do in Santa Fe
E A E O I A A E

Where does it say you gotta live and die here
E E O E I A O U O A I E A I E E E Where does it say a guy cant catch a break
E E O E I A A U A A A E A Why should you only take what youre given
O U O U O A E A O U E I E Why should you spend your whole life livin
O U O U E O U O E I E I I Trapped where there aint no future, even at 17
A E E E E E A I O U U R E E A E E E E Breakin your back for someone elses sake
E A I O U A O O E O E E E A E If the life dont seem to suit ya
I E I E O E E O U I A How bout a change of scene
O O U A A E O E EFar from the lousy headlines
A O E O U E A I E

And the deadlines in between
A E E A I E I E E E

Santa Fe, my old friend
A A E O Y I E I cant spend my whole life dreamin
I A E Y O E I E E A I Though I know thats all I seem inclined to do
O U I O A A I E E I I E O O I aint gettin any younger
I A I E I A O U E And I wanna start brand new
A I A A A A E I need space and freshair
I E E A E A E A I Let em laugh in my face,I dont care
E E A U I Y A I O A R Save my place,Ill be there
A E Y A E I E E E Just be real is all Im askin
U E E A I A I A I Not some painting in my head
O O A I I I Y E ACause Im dead if I cant count on you today
A U E I E A I I A O U O O U O AI got nothin if I aint got Santa Fe
I O O I I I A I O A A E
