I've been looking at some chords online and none of them seem right to me. When
I'm singing this acoustic by myself, it sounds great. Hope y'all like it...

[G] [A] [D] [D]
[G] [A] [D] [D]
[G]x2[A][D][D][A]
(let A ring) G A D
I said I wanna touch the earth
I wanna [G]break it [A]in my [D]hands
I wanna g[G]row [A]something [D]wild and unr[A]uly
I wanna s[G]leep on the [A]hard [D]ground
In the [G]comfort o[A]f your a[D]rms
On a [G]pillow [A]of blue [D]bonnets
In a b[A]lanket made of stars
G D A ...
Oh it sounds good to me

Fly this girl as [D]high as you can in[G]to the wild b[A]lue

I wanna [G]look at t[A]he hor[D]izon
And not s[A]ee a building standing tall
I wanna [G]be the o[A]nly [D]one
For [G]miles[A] and[D] miles
Exc[G]ept for m[A]aybe y[D]ou
And your [A]simple smile
Oh it s[G]ounds [D]good to [A]me
Yes it [G]sounds so [D]good to [A]me
I said Cowboy [D]take [G]me aw[A]ay
Fly this girl as [D]high as you can in[G]to the wild b[A]lue

I wanna [G]break it [A]in my h[D]ands
I wanna [G]grow s[A]omething [D]wild and un[A]ruly
Oh it s[G]ounds so g[D]ood to [A]me
