Wide Open (Not So Great)

(album: Good Ones Never Last - 2019)

Gas pedal's got that Tulsa west wind blowing
That empty seat is getting to me good
Dust bowl stretch of Oklahoma
Wouldn't grow green grass even if it could

Never felt so small under this big sky
Stars look better shining in your eyes
Freedom ain't everything that I was hoping
Hello from the not so great wide open

I used to think that dreams were made for chasing
Until I let one catch me by the hand
Fooled us both into thinking that I was staying
Broke that promise looking for the promise land

Never felt so small under this big sky
Stars look better shining in your eyes
Freedom ain't everything that I was hoping
Hello from the not so great wide open

Wheels rolling, wide open
My heart's broken wide open

Never felt so small under this big sky
Stars look better shining in your eyes
Freedom ain't everything that I was hoping
Hello from the not so great wide open

Not so great wide open
Not so great wide open
Wide open
