Intro: G D G C   G D G Am 
  
G        D  G    C          G   D 
Joey and me were out on the freeway 
G           D G   C 
Leaving the city race 
G          D  G    C        G   D 
Out of the hustle, into the country 
G             D G  C 
Searching for open space 
G           D    G    C        G 
Shoulder to shoulder, mile for mile 
               D  G    C 
But neither of us knew where 
G           D     G   C         G 
Sleeping at night out under the stars 
             D   G    C 
Inhaling the mountain air 
  
  

Am              
Under the open skies 
G 
Living in paradise 
C                D 
Joey and me were free 
Am 
Nobody else allowed 
G 
Anyone more's a crowd 
C                 D      D-D-D-D 
Joey and me makes three 
  
  
G        D      G  C           G 
Often we talked of wasting our time 
                 D  G   C 
And bridges that we had crossed 
    G         D      G  C           G   
But mostly we looked in vain for ourselves 
                D  G    C 
Forgetting that we were lost 
G        D  G    C        G 
Joey and me were two of a kind 
                 D   G C 
In love with our own ideals 
G         D    G   C         G 
Aiming to keep the gathering years 
                 D  G    C 
In pace with our rolling wheels 
  
  
Chorus: 
Am              
Under the open skies 
G 
Living in paradise 
C                D 
Joey and me were free 
Am 
Nobody else allowed 
G 
Anyone more's a crowd 
C                 D 
Joey and me makes three 
  
  
Bridge: 
C        D               D        G 
  Let me tell you how it all went wrong 
      F           C        G 
  How me and Joey didn't belong 
          C            D        G 
  We were tripping the light fantastic 
         F       C        D 
  Intergalactic, Joey and me

    G          D    G   C         G 
The wilderness road had taken its toll 
               D G   C 
I knew I could never last 
    G              D    G    C         G 
The lines had gone down in a flurry of snow 
               D  G  C 
The winter was on us fast 
  G           D    G C      G D 
I made my way back into the city 
G            D   G   C 
Hitched to a guiding star 
G       D      G   C    G 
Joey is out on his own again 
                 D  G  C 
He's richer than me by far 
  
  
 
Am              
Under the open skies

Living in paradise 
C                D

Nobody else allowed
