Intro: C 

Listen baby, I won't leave no trace 

Gonna light out of here for some cleaner place 
       D 
I'll be sitting in the backseat with my hair in my face 
                              G 
Gone fast, as freedom on good wind 



N.C.        F     ~   G 
If I got my hopes too high 
           C            F 
This is no easy kind of life 
~          Dm          F                G 
Here in my mind's eye, touch me real as daytime 
N.C.           C 
I can't keep from trying 



No place to run for a girl like me 

Whole lot of used to's and supposed to be's 
         D 
I want to burn like August, shine like gold dust 
                                G 
Where everyday living can't hold me 



N.C.        F     ~   G 
If I got my hopes too high 
           C            F 
This is no easy kind of life 
~         Dm          F                G 
See in my mind's eye, touch me real as daytime 
N.C.           C 
I can't keep from trying
