Verse 1:
         G                                  D             G
Well the white water wanders through them Hoosier hills
                       D
The water rolls right on
          G                  Bm
And the moon rises over a furrowed field
G     E              A
B  sycamore stands in the sun

Chorus:
     F#m                  Bm
But they can’t take me where
           G       E
I would rather be
                       A
Where my heart leads me to
F#m                  Bm               G             D
They can’t take me where I would rather be with You

Verse 2:
             G                        D            G
Well the greyhound may bus me over prairie miles
          D                G
Endless distances keep running
     G                                Bm
And up above me the clouds seem to sail on by
G          E                   A
I can’t keep myself from wondering

Chorus:
     F#m                 Bm
If they could take me where
           G       E
I would rather be
                       A
Where my heart leads me to
F#m                  Bm             G               D
They can’t take me where I would rather be with You

Bridge:
                F#m
Well I’ve spent most of my life
                                    Bm
Running away from the things I’ve needed
              F#m
And I spent most of my time being

Too proud to pray
             G         E                A
But now at last I’m down here on my knees

Verse 3:
          G                       D             G
And the neon flashes like the alabaster ruins
                             D
Sending signals out to the blind
          G                         D
And the people here well they’re always moving
G            E               A
Soon I’ll leave them all behind

Chorus:
        F#m                 Bm
Cause they can’t take me where
          G         E
I would rather be
                       A
Where my heart leads me to
F#m                   Bm           G
They can’t take me where I would rather be
          Dsus   D
With You
