* 8-bar intro
* Verse 1 Who oesn't now what I'm talking about?
Who's never left home?
Who's never struck out
To find a dream and a life of their own,
A place in the clouds, a foundation of stone?
Many precede and many will follow
A young girl's dream no longer hollow.
It takes the she of a place out west,
But what it holds for her, she hasn't yet guessed.
* Chorus She needs wide open spaces,
Room to make her big mistakes.
She needs new faces.
She knows the high stakes.
* Verse 2 She travelled this road as a child.
Wide-eyed and grinning, she never tired,
But now she won't be coming back with the rest.
If these are life's lessons, she'll take this test.
* Chorus 2 She needs wide open spaces,
Room to make her big mistakes.
She needs new faces.
She knows the high stakes.
She knows the high stakes.
* 8-bar break
* Verse 3 As her Ffolks drive away, her dad yells, "Check the oil!"
Mom stares out the window and says, "I'm leaving my girl."
She Says, it didn't seem like that long ago
When she stood there and let her own folks know....
* Repeat chorus 2
* Outro She knows the high stakes (wide open spaces).
She knows the High Stakes
She knows the high stakes (wide open spaces).
