Intro
Dm9
v1
     I'm in a wide open spDm9ace, I'm standing
    I'm all alone and staring into Aadd9spa-a-ace
It's always quiet through Dm9my - ceiling
The roof comes in and crashes in a Aadd9da-a-aze
Chorus
                        Fmaj7#11
     I'm in a wide open space, it's freezing
You'll never get to heaven with a smile on your face for A2me-e-e
                        Fmaj7#11
     I'm in a wide open space, I'm staring
There's something quite bizarre I cannot A2see-e-e
v2
      I'm on the top of a Dm9hill, I'm lonely
There's someone here to shout to miles Aadd9awa-a-ay
    I could be back in my Dm9house, for I care
They do not hear me, it's the same old Aadd9wa-a-ay
Chorus
                        Fmaj7#11
     I'm in a wide open space, it's freezing
You'll never get to heaven with a smile on your face for A2me-e-e
                        Fmaj7#11
     I'm in a wide open space, I'm staring
There's something quite bizarre I cannot A2see-e-e

v3 (same as v1)
     I'm in a wide open spDm9ace, I'm standing

Chorus
                        Fmaj7#11
