ABABEm7EA
So that's what they call a family
Em7EAF#m
Mother, daughter, father, son
BmEABAB
Guess that everything you heard about is true
Em7EA
So you ain't got any family
Em7EAF#m
Well, who said you needed one?
AB7G
Ain't ya glad nobody's waitin' up for you?
EA
When I dream
F#m
On my own
DEDA
I'm alone but I ain't lonely
EC#F#F#mD
For a dreamer night's the on-ly time of day
BmE7Em7F#m
When the city's finally sleepin'
BmE7C#mF#m
All my thoughts begin to stray
CGF#mB7E
And I'm on the train that's bound for Santa Fe
A
And I'm free
F#m
Like the wind
DEDA
Like I'm gonna live forever
EC#F#F#mD
It's a feeling time can ne-ver take away
E7A
All I need's a few more dollars
DE7C#
And I'm outta here to stay
Bm
Dreams come true
E7
Yes, they do
A
In Santa Fe
DEDEA
Where does it say you gotta live and die here?
DEDEA
Where does it say a guy can't catch a break?
A
Why should you only take what you're given?
F#mDm
Why should you spend your whole life livin'
F#m
Trapped where there ain't no future
D
Even at seventeen
F#mD
Breakin' your back for someone else's sake
G
If the life don't seem to suit ya
G#mC#
How 'bout a change of scene?
F#m
Far from the lousy headlines
E
And the deadlines in between
E7A
Santa Fe
F#m
Are you there?
DEDA
Do you swear you won't forget me?
EC#F#F#mD
If I found you would you let me come and stay?
BmE7A
I ain't gettin' any younger
DE7C#
And before my dyin' day
Bm
I want space
E7
Not just air
AC#m
Let 'em laugh in my face
F#m
I don't care
ABm
Save a place
D
I'll be there
Em7EA
So that's what they call a family
Em7EAF#m
Ain't ya glad you ain't that way?
BmE7A
Ain't ya glad you got a dream called Santa Fe?
