0Spent my days with a woman unkind,
                                   D1
1Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine.
G2
2Made up my mind to make a new start,
                                            D3
3Going to california with an aching in my heart.

                                          D5

8Took my chances on a big jet plane,
                                               D10
9Never let them tell you that theyre all the same.
G11
10The sea was red and the sky was grey,
                                           D12
11Wondered how tomorrow could ever follow today.
    G13
12The mountains and the canyons started to tremble and shake
                                      D14
13As the children of the sun began to awake.

14Seems that the wrath of the gods

16Got a punch on the nose and it started to flow;
                     A716  A17
17I think I might be sinking.
Dm18
18Throw me a line if I reach it in time

20Ill meet you up there where the path
                  A719  A20
21Runs straight and high.
G21
22To find a queen without a king;
                                              D22
23They say she plays guitar and cries as she sings.
G23
24Ride a white mare in the footsteps of dawn
                                                     D24
25Tryin to find a woman whos never, never, never been born.
G25
26Standing on a hill in my mountain of dreams,
                                                   D26
27Telling myself its not as hard, hard, hard as it seems.
