Benmont Tench - Into The Great Wide Open lyrics

[Verse 1] Eddie waited til 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 They moved into a place they both could afford He found a night club he could work at the door She had a guitar and she taught him some chords The sky was the limit [Chorus] Into the great wide open Under them skies of blue Out in the great wide open A rebel without a clue [Verse 2] 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 chart The sky was the limit His leather jacket had chains that would jingle They both met movie stars, partied and mingled Their A&R man said, "I don't hear a single" The future was wide open [Chorus]
