Route 14 Box 308
Bm       A              G       
She said goodbye at the 
     A
cattle-guard gate
G                A               
Hoping she would find her a place
        D      A
 in the world
         D                A
With her mind made up and tears in 
her eyes
Bm        A        G          A
It almost made her daddy cry
        G               A         
He said don't forget to call when 
              D
you get there girl.

Bm                            G  
Driving on that two lane road 
              D
hoping she might find
Bm                                
A whole lot more waiting up ahead 
     G             A
than what she left behind

       D  A       G    A
Moving up-stairs, down-town
           A           G
Life's too short to be hanging 
around
D     A                 G       
She's eighteen and it's time she
     A          Bm      A
 got out of the woods
G                 A7     
She's getting out while the 
                   D A G A
getting's good

D                    A
All bills paid and a room with a 
view
Bm    A          G           A
She's unpacked a dish or two
G                A               
She just got her phone turned on 
D     A
today
          D                     
There's a big, old world waiting 
 A
just outside
   Bm             A         
As she's thumbing through the 
  G
classifieds
G                   A
Looking for work at any old job's 
okay

Bm                                 
Driving on that cross-town freeway 
G                D
hoping she might find

        D                   A
And she lost her job at the grocery 
store
        Bm        A               
And the wolf came knocking at the 
G     A
door
G                    A           
Red notice said they turned off 
   D
her telephone
D                        A       
There's nothing left for her to 
     Bm           A             G
do so she's packed up a thing or two
G                    A      
Loaded her car down, now she's 
          D
headed home

 got back to the woods
