Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Once  upon another time
Somebody's  hands who felt like mine
Turned  the key and took a drive
 Was free
Highway  curve, the sun sank low
Buckley  on the radio
Cigarette  was burning slow
 So breathe
 Just yellow  lines and tire marks
 And sun-kissed  skin and handle bars
 And where  I stood was where I was to be
 No enemies  to call my own
 No porch  light on to pull me home
 And where  I was is beautiful
 Because  I was free
Once  upon another time
Before  I knew which life was mine
Before  I left the child behind me
I  saw myself in summer nights
And  stars lit up like candle light
I  make my wish but mostly I believed
 In yellow  lines and tire marks
Sun-kissed  skin and handle bars
 And where  I stood was where I was to be
Once  upon another time
Decided  nothing good in dying
 So I  would just keep on driving
Because  I was free
