Trampled by Turtles - Western World
Capo 3
I wrote down the lyrics myself because I couldn't find them anywhere. so there are probably some mistakes 
here and there, this is just my closest guess.
Also I'm pretty sure they don't actually play Em9/F# between the G and Em, so feel free to leave it out, but it 
sounds better in my opinion if you don't have a bass player backing you.
G       Em9/F#  Em
CThe sun was Ghigh and Amgood for Emtravel
CI don't Gmind when Amthings Emunravel in Gthe Em9/F#western Emworld
Ca slave to the Glight in the Amcool dark Emshadow
