Intro: 
 C#m-  G#m-  G#m- F#  
Verse 1:
   C#m-    G#m-   G#m-   F#  
Somewhere out on the cold October
   C#m-    G#m-   G#m-   F#  
Somewhere under the canyon moon
   C#m-    G#m-   G#m-   F#  
Counter jammin' a slow exposure 
   C#m-    G#m-   G#m-   F#  
California and her rear view
Verse 2:
 C#m-     G#m-    G#m-      F#  
She couldn't handle another season
   C#m-    G#m-   G#m-   F#  
Another ocean, of fish and blue
   C#m-    G#m-   G#m-   F#  
Said a prayer to a dashboard of Jesus
   C#m-    G#m-   G#m-   F#  
Death valley and worn out shoes
 C#m-     G#m-    G#m-      F#  
When the roads end to desert everywhere

Take all your troubles and put them to bed
 C#m-     G#m-    G#m-      F#  
Burn down the mission that maps in your hair
 C#m-     G#m-    G#m-      F#  
Shine like bullet don't know the way
EWith shame kinda',  F#got away from you, you
