[INTRO]
[Em] [C] [Am] [Em] [C] [Am] [Em]
[VERSE 1]
When I get out of [C]Aberdeen, [Am]one of these days [Em]
Trade in the truck and these [C]fields of green for a [Am]ticket on the airways
[Em]I've seen pictures in [C]magazines of[Am] skyscrapers and light displays [Em]
And all that I can [C]think about, is [A7]getting away today [C]
[CHORUS]
Every dollar I have saved [Am]
Every winter I have braved [D]
Every road that I have paved, well [Em]
Leads to somewhere [C]
Never was there any doubt [Am]
I would make my way out [D]
I want to know what life's all about and [Em]
I will [D]get ther[Em]e__ [C] [Am] [Em]
[VERSE 2]
Like clockwork the [C]sun rises on my [Am]farm
[Em]Brightens the hills and [C]wakes the trees, this [Am]town has its charm
But [Em]although when you see it, day [C]in and day out for [Am]over twenty years
What [Em]once was a choice be[C]comes obvious, [A7]now it's clear, I gotta do it [C]
[CHORUS]
Every dollar I have saved [Am]

[VERSE 3]
When I get out of [C]Aberdeen, [Am]one of these days
I'm [Em]not quite sure which [C]way I'll lean, but it [Am]won't matter anyway
[Em]I'll never for[C]get about you,[Am] you and I, we'll meet again someday an[Em]d
All I [C]know is, I can't [A7]stay___ [C]here
