IN SPITE OF THE NAME
INDEPENDENCE KANSAS
DIDN'T GROW MANY
WILD ROSES
BUT SHE WAS YOUNG
AND RESTLESS
AND I LOVED HER
THOUGH HOLDIN'
HER DOWN
WAS HOPELESS
WELL I WANTED HER
TO SAY
SHE COULDN'T LIVE
WITHOUT
THE LIFE I HAD TO OFFER
BUT ALL SHE COULD
TALK ABOUT
IS FAR AWAY DREAMS
SHE SAID THAT SHE
NEVER SEEN
HOW DO I FIND
THAT GIRL
WHEN SHE COULD BE
OUT THERE ANYWHERE
SHE JUST UP AND LEFT
SHE DIDN'T LEAVE A
FORWARDING ADDRESS
OR A TRAIL FOR MY
LONELY HEART
TO FOLLOW
WHICH ONE OF THOSE
COLDER WINDS
SHOULD I GO CHASIN'
SHE COULD BE
IN A MILLION PLACES
I GUESS
UP NORTH
DOWN SOUTH
BACK EAST
OUT WEST
4 BAR
BREAK
SHE COULD BE UP
IN THE WINDY CITY
WHERE THE WORLD
SPINS A LITTLE FASTER
OR GETTIN' A TAN
DOWN IN MIAMI
THAT MIGHT BE WHERE
I CATCH HER
MAYBE BACK IN
VIRGINIA
HER COUSIN IS THERE
OUT IN ARIZONA
SHE'D FIT IN
ANYWHERE
IT'S ANYONE'S GUESS
WHERE SHE CAME
TO REST
BUT MY ONE CHANCE
FOR HAPPINESS IS
OUT THERE ANYWHERE
SHE JUST UP AND LEFT
SHE DIDN'T LEAVE A
FORWARDING ADDRESS
OR A TRAIL
FOR MY LONELY HEART
TO FOLLOW
WHICH ONE OF THOSE
COLDER WINDS
SHOULD I GO CHASIN'
SHE COULD BE
IN A MILLION PLACES
I GUESS
UP NORTH
DOWN SOUTH
BACK EAST
OUT WEST
I'M SITTIN' HERE
AT A FOUR WAY
INTERSECTION
PRAY THE LORD
WON'T YOU POINT ME
IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION
SHE COULD BE
OUT THERE ANYWHERE
SHE JUST UP AND LEFT
SHE DIDN'T LEAVE A
FORWARDING ADDRESS
OR A TRAIL
FOR MY LONELY HEART
TO FOLLOW
WHICH ONE OF THOSE
COLDER WINDS
SHOULD I GO CHASIN'
SHE COULD BE
IN A MILLION PLACES
I GUESS
UP NORTH
DOWN SOUTH
BACK EAST
OUT WEST
UP NORTH
DOWN SOUTH
BACK EAST
OUT WEST
