(Capo 1. bånd)

(Vers 1)

Am                               C
  I wake in the morning with one thing on my mind
   Dm                             E
To get up on my feet and be on my way
Am                                      C
  The wide roads are calling and I’m running out of time
   Dm                             E
To make the most of this exciting day 

(Mellemspil)

Am                C            E
Hey, hey, oh, oh, hey, hey, hey ! 

(Omkvæd)

     Am
Everybody’s gotta end up somewhere
         C
I’m just taking my time to get there
       Am
And it looks like freedom and it smells like fun
       C
But it feels like being on the run 

(Mellemspil)

          Am
Oh uh woh oh

(Vers 2)

Am                               C
  I wake in the morning with one thing in my head
    Dm                                   E
The haunting sound of chords I’ve yet to play
Am                                      C
  It sounds like a warning that maybe I should stay in bed
  Dm                                E
Before these winding roads lead my astray 

(Omkvæd)

     Am                  
Everybody’s gotta end up somewhere
         C
I’m just taking my time to get there
       Am
And it looks like freedom and it smells like fun
       C
But it feels like being on the run 

(Mellemspil)

Am                  Gm                        Am
Somewhere there’s a place for us, a place for us
Am
Where?
          Gm
There’s a place for us... 

(Afsluttende omkvæd)

  Am
Everybody’s gotta end up somewhere
         C
I’m just taking my time to get there
       Am
And it looks like freedom and it smells like fun
       C
But it feels like being on the run 

          Am
Oh uh woh ohh
