Escape the Small Town
Wandering Soul

[Verse 1]
G           D       Em       C
I wanna pack my bags and hit the road
G             D       Em        C
Escape the weight of the debts I owe.
G            D       Em        C
The slow-paced pulse always drags me down.
G           D       Em        C
I’m just a lost soul in this small town.

[Pre-Chorus]
Em             D           C          G
Still gotta finish drying the towels and clothes,
Em              D            C              G
A mundane task in a life I’ve outgrown
Em             D           C          G
Dreams of sunsets on distant shores,
Em             D        C          G
Where the horizon’s open and the spirit soars.
