    D - C - G (4x)

 

                 D                    C               G

1. Well, I got to take a break from it all,

                        D                   C               G

    'cause the wind and the wilderness calls.

               D                        C                      G

    And I just need some peace from the stars,

        D                    C               G

    I got to take a break from it all.

 

                D                    C               G

2. And I got to take a break for a while

                         D                   C                  G

    where there ain't another human for a hundred miles.

         D                   C                    G

    I hate being enclosed by the walls,

                    D                    C               G

    and I've got to take a break from it all.

 

                D                                            C

    I'll be dancing on diamonds, I'll be skating on glass,

                  D                                     C

    I'll be chopping up wood, I'll be splitting the hands.

           D                      C

    An old AM radio is all that I've got,

D                                                               C

    it just plays Hank Williams and some bad honky-tonk,

                   D                    C                G

    'cause I got to take a break from it all.

                    D                     C             G

3. And I've got to break away from it all,

                    D                 C                      G

    from the city and the suburbs and sprawl.

                       D              C                       G

    And the small town chatter and the know-it-alls

              D                C                 G

    to a place where no one can call,

 

                D                                          C

    And I won't hear thе sirens or the maddening crowd,

                   D                                C

    just thе bark of a fox and the hoot of an owl.

D                                                 C

    Ain't got no connections or a satellite phone,

D                                                         C

    I'm avoiding the pictures and the people back home.

                      D                  C             G

    And I just got to break free from it all.

 

                            Em                                 C

+  You see, they can't last forever, I'll be diving back in,

            Em                                   G

    it's good for my soul, yes, it's saving my skin.

               Em                                   C

    'Cause I love the laughter, the women, the wine,

             Em                 D             C

    I just got to break free from it all.  . . .

                   D                C               G

3. But I'm way off the grid, off the trail,

       D                 C              G

    I ain't gonna post and I ain't gonna mail.

                D                C                       G

    I just need some peace from the storm.

                      D                    C              G

    Well, I've got to break away from it all.

                D                    C             G

    And I got to break away from it all !

                D                    C              G

    And I got to break away from it all,

              D                C                G

    to a place where no one can call !

                D                    C             G

    And I got to break away from it all !
