Into the Great Wide Open - Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers

Spitting from the bridges Like a bird perched on a branch I'm wilting like a tree That will never let me breathe Soul soldier with your gun held high Where does the crow fly? Soul soldier with your gun held high Will you follow it home? For the road that we walk has more miles left to talk Stories on and on we go, into the great wide open No, it never came back to break me The way it broke it down Spitting from the bridges While the trees give a soft sigh to the ground Soul soldier with your flag held high Where does the crow fly? Soul soldier with your flag held high Will you follow it home? For the road that we walk has more miles left to talk Stories on and on we go, into the great wide open For the road that we walk has more miles left to talk Stories on and on we go, into the great wide open Into the great wide open The rush of the flood, sends the blood, to my head The rush of the flood, sends the blood, to my head Soul soldier with your gun held high Where does the crow fly? Soul soldier with your gun held high Will you follow it home? The rush of the flood, sends the blood, to my head The rush of the flood, sends the blood, to my head Climb out, climb out oh, climb out, climb out oh Climb out, climb out oh, over me Climb out, climb out oh, climb out, climb out oh Climb out, climb out over me Into the great wide open

This kingdom in your eyes This world could be ours So I'm letting go tonight And handing you the knife If you cut me wide open There's love here unspoken A heart overflowing Dreaming of your kiss I'm standing here hoping For the moment you'll say when Touching your skin, giving You kill me everytime I would die for you I could go on and pretend And play the fool again How can I just walk away From everything I feel?

I sure like that candy I don't go for them turnip greens I sure like that candy I don't go for them turnip greens So when you put it on the table Oh mama think about me Well I don't drink Coca Cola But I sure like the old moonshine Well I don't drink Coca Cola But I sure like the old moonshine Yeah we drink it from a fruit jar With my little baby by my side Well I don't much like walking But I love my Eldorado ride I ain't never cared a thing about walking But I love my Eldorado ride Yeah we run it round the cornfield With my little baby by my side (Chorus)Well I don't drink Coca Cola But I sure like the old moonshine Well I don't drink Coca Cola But I sure like the old moonshine

Put down your things and rest awhile We both know where to go Yeah, daddy had to crash He was always halfway there you know And no, I don't pretend there's any more of that They say one day, you'll look up and laugh And hear the same sad echo when you walk Yeah, the same sad echo when you talk, loud and clear It's the same, it's the same sad echo around here I promise you this winter I will worship you like gold And ride your train forever Electric fortunes to be told And I don't want to question or even celebrate All the joy you took and then gave back too late It's the same sad echo when you lie It's the same sad echo when you try to be clear It's the same as the same sad echo, around here Well, I woke up right here In a pool of sweat With a box of pills and you Yeah, and I'm gonna keep my head I'm gonna keep my cool 'Cause I'm so in love with you Yes, and in another world nothing was like this There may have been a girl There never was a kiss The poison came in liquid She was naked all the time And no one could explain it It was all between the lines And I don't seem to trust anyone no more It could be faith, but now I'm not quite sure It's the same sad echo every day Yeah, the same sad echo another way It's the same sad echo when you call It's the same, it's the same sad echo, most of all Well you just got tired You just gave in You took it hard Then you just quit You let me down You dropped the ball You fell on your face most of all And I don't want to mean anything to you I don't want to tempt you to be true It's the same sad echo comin' down It's the same sad echo all around in my ears It's the same, it's the same sad echo around here

Goin' down to Lillian's Music Store To buy a black diamond string Gonna wind it up on my guitar Gonna make that silver sing Like it was Dreamville A long time ago A million miles away All the trees were green In Dreamville I keep wakin' up all by myself With a Blue Jay in my brain Flappin' his wings Making me sing It was just about to rain Like it was Dreamville Where I was born Light-years from here And the air smelled good In Dreamville Like it was Dreamville A long time ago Light-years from here And the trees were green In Dreamville Ridin' with my momma To Glen Springs Pool Water was cold My lips were blue There was rock and roll Across the dial When I think of her It makes me smile Like it was Dreamville A long time ago A million miles away All the trees were green In Dreamville In Dreamville It was in Dreamville A long time ago Light-years from here And the air smelled good In Dreamville In Dreamville

From a table across the room She was signaling me with her eyes I walked over to be introduced I said, "Hello", she just smiled And said, "I know a place Not too far from here We could get away for a while" Yeah, that's when she kissed me And told me her name I never did tell her mine Magnolia I remember the smell Of the wind through the sweet Magnolia And I know that she's out there Somewhere in the world She's forgotten me but I remember her Magnolia Well her lips were as warm As that wet southern night Her eyes were as black as the sky And I wondered aloud Just what I had done right As I lay there, with her by my side Then she took hold of my hand As she looked up at me And said, "Now I must tell you goodbye" And there in the moonlight As I watched her leave I felt a chill down inside Oh, Magnolia I remember the smell Of the wind through the sweet Magnolia And I know that she's out there Somewhere in the world She's forgotten me but I remember her Magnolia I remember the smell Of the wind through the sweet Magnolia
