D

G
Spent my days with a woman unkind,
                                                         D
Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine.
G
Made up my mind to make a new start,
                                                                 D
Going to California with an aching in my heart.
G
Someone told me there's a girl out there
                                                                D
With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair.

[Instrumental]

G
Took my chances on a big jet plane,
                                                                     D
Never let them tell you that they're all the same.
G
The sea was red and the sky was grey,
                                                                        D
Wondered how tomorrow could ever follow today.
         G
The mountains and the canyons started to tremble and shake
                                                           D
As the children of the sun began to awake.
Dm
Seems that the wrath of the gods

Got a punch on the nose and it started to flow;
                             A7  A
I think I might be sinking.
Dm
Throw me a line if I reach it in time

I'll meet you up there where the path
                             A7 A
Runs straight and high.

D

G
To find a queen without a king;
                                                                    D
They say she plays guitar and cries as she sings.
G
Ride a white mare in the footsteps of dawn
                                                                                      D
Tryin to find a woman who's never, never, never been born.
G
Standing on a hill in my mountain of dreams,
                                                                         D
Telling myself it's not as hard, hard, hard as it seems.
