Into the great wide open - Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

Strophe) 

Eddie waited till he finished high school 

He went to Hollywood, got a tattoo 

He met a girl out there with a tattoo too 

The future was wide open 

 

Strophe) 

They moved into a place they both could afford 

He found a nightclub he could work at the door 

She had a guitar and she taught him some chords 

The sky was the limit 

 

Refrain) 

Into the great wide open 

Under them skies of blue 

Out in the great wide open 

A rebel without a clue

 

Strophe) 

The papers said Ed always played from the heart 

He got an agent and a roadie named Bart 

They made a record and it went in the charts 

The sky was the limit 

 

Strophe) 

His leather jacket had chains that would jingle 

They both met movie stars, partied and mingled 

Their A&R man said " don´t hear a single" 

The future was wide open 

 

Refrain) 

Into the great wide open 

Under them skies of blue 

Out in the great wide open 

A rebel without a clue

 

Refrain) 

Into the great wide open 

Under them skies of blue 

Out in the great wide open 

A rebel without a clue
