Intro: [D] x (2 - 8 bars - you pick)
[G] Spent my days with a woman unkind,
Smoked my stuff and drank... all my [D] wine [D] x3
[G] Made up my mind to make a new start,
Going to California with an aching... in my [D] hea-rt. [D] x3
[G] Someone told me there’s a girl out there
With love in her eyes and flowers... in her [D] hair-air [D] x3
[Dm] [G] [D] [D] [Dm] [G] [D] [D] [D]
[G] Took my chances on a big jet plane,
Never let them tell you that they're all-all-all the [D] same [D] x3
Oh..[G] The sea was red and the sky was grey,
Wondered how tomorrow... could ever follow to-[D]day-ay-ay [D] x3
[G] The mountains and the canyons started to tremble and shake
The children of the sun began to a-[D]wake. [D] (watchout) [D] x2
[Dm] It seems that the wrath of the gods
Got a punch on the nose and it started to flow;
I think I might be [A7] sinking [A] x3
[Dm] Throw me a line if I reach it in time
I’ll meet you up there where the path
Runs straight and [A7] high [A] x3
[D] [D] [D] [D]
[G] To find a queen without a king;
They say she plays guitar and cries and [D] sings [D] La-la-la [D] x3
[G] Ride a white mare in the footsteps of dawn
Tryin’ to find a woman whos never, never, never been [D] born [D] x3
[G] Standing on a hill in my mountain of dreams,
Telling myself its not as hard, hard, hard as it [D] seems [D] x3
[Dm] [G] [D] [D] [Dm] [G] [D] [D]
