Why should you spend your whole life living

Trapped where there ain't no future
Fmaj7            Am  
Even at seventeen

Breaking your back for someone else's sake

Far from the lousy headlines and the deadlines in between

I can't spend my whole life dreaming

Though I know that's all I seem inclined to do
         Em7    A7   Gbm7 D       Gmaj7  A7         Gb7
I ain't getting any younger, And I wanna start brand new

 I need space, And fresh air

Not some painting in my head

Cause I'm dead if I can't count on you today

I got nothing if I ain't got Santa Fe
