Big Dreams High Hopes

Am G Am G

     Am              G           
When I was young I'd sit outside 
Am                 G
all night long and watch the lights
       F                 C     
Of the big trucks on the highway 
             G
rollin' on
  Am                G        Am  
I wished that I was in a car 
          G
drivin' fast, drivin' far,
       F                    C     
And at seventeen that's ex- actly 
              G
what I'd done

[Bridge]
    F                            
And to this day, I don't know why 
     G
I'm restless
        Am              F         
I guess some hearts are simply 
         G
born to run

[Chorus]
F   C            G
Big dreams, high hopes
        Am
They've led me through the hard 
times
       F                  Em      
Like a north star shinin' showing 
            G
me where to go
             F                    
They're what got this whole thing 
G
started
             Am               Em  
They're what keep this cowboy 
            F
ridin' down the road
Continues after the ad
    C       G    C
Big dreams, high hopes

[Instrumental]
Am G Am G

    Am                 G          
I'm older and a little wiser now, 
  Am            G
a wide eyed boy who set out
   F                   C          
To change the world is gone but 
          G
not forgot- ten
  Am                     G     
I still chase lights and wish on 
         Am                   G
stars, that's what got that boy this
 far
    F                 C           
And still feels good, there ain't 
                  Am
no point in stop- pin'

[Bridge]
    F                              
But even though I hardly ever catch
 G
 'em
Am            F                  
God, don't it just feel good to 
   G
try

[Chorus]
F   C            G
Big dreams, high hopes
        Am
They've led me through the hard 
times
       F                  Em      
Like a north star shinin' showing 
            G
me where to go
             F                    
They're what got this whole thing 
G
started
             Am               Em  
They're what keep this cowboy 
            F
ridin' down the road
    C       G    C     Am
Big dreams, high hopes

[Bridge]
F                                 
We're all out here tryin' to be 
   G
hap- py
      Am    F                   G
To be happy all you really need is

[Chorus]
F   C            G
Big dreams, high hopes
        Am
They've led me through the hard 
times
       F                  Em      
Like a north star shinin' showing 
            G
me where to go
             F                    
They're what got this whole thing 
G
started
             Am               Em  
They're what keep this cowboy 
            F
ridin' down the road
    C       G    C      F   C  
Big dreams, high hopes, big 
     G    C
dreams, high hopes
