The intro and first few bars of the verse seem to be the following:
Em Em? Em7 Em6
e---0---------------------------------------------------|
b---0---------------------------------------------------| The chord names are probably a bit
g---0---------------------------------------------------| dodgy but - hey. If you play this
d---2----1---0-------- on an acoustic 12-| string (like TP's
a---2----2---2---4--------------------------------------| nice Martin one ...) it sounds ok.
e---0----0---0---0--------------------------------------|
Em Em? Em7 Em6
Eddie waited till he finished high school
Em Em? Em7 Em6
He went to Hollywood, got a tattoo
Am Am/G Am/F# Am/G
He met a girl out there with a tattoo too
G F C G C G
The future was wide open.
Em Em? Em7 Em6
They moved into a place they both could afford
Em Em? Em7 Em6
He found a nightclub he could work at the door
Am Am/G Am/F# Am/G
She had a guitar and she taught him some chords
G F C G C G G C GD
The sky was the limit.
G C D(sus4) G Em D Am
Into the great wide open, under them skies of blue
G C D(sus4) G F Em A
Out in the great wide open, a rebel without a clue.
(instrum: play the intro riff and end with G then A - I think)
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 charts
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.
Into the great wide open, under them skies of blue
Out in the great wide open, a rebel without a clue.
Into the great wide open, under them skies of blue
Out in the great wide open, a rebel without a clue.
final flourish: G C G G C G.
