b---0----0---0---0----          The chord names are probably a bit  
g---0----0---0---0----                dodgy but - hey. If you play this  
d---2----1---0---2----                on an acoustic 12 string (like TP's  
a---2----2---2---4----                nice Martin one ...) it sounds ok.

The papers said Ed always played from the heart 
He got an agent and a roadie named Bart 
They made a record and it went in the charts 
The sky was the limit. 
  
His leather jacket had chains that would jingle 
They both met movie stars, partied and mingled. 
Their A&R man said "I don't hear a single." 
The future was wide open. 
  
Into the great wide open, under them skies of blue 
Out in the great wide open, a rebel without a clue. 
  
Into the great wide open,  under them skies of blue 
Out in the great wide open, a rebel without a clue. 
 
final flourish: G C G   G C G.
