EVENING STAR
                                G
        If you never rode West of
                     D
        The Arizona border
                                G
        You can turn the other way,boy
                          C/G
        But you never get far
                         G
        You be living a lie
                             C/G
        If you wanna see the wonders of the age
                  G
        You must follow 
      D               G
        The evening star
Chorus:
                  G
        Evening star
                                    C/G
        Shine a little Heaven on a stranger with no dream
                  D
        Where you are
        You can see the loneliness i mean
                        G           D
        And if i gotta fight,i can never play
         G       C/G     G
        Somebody else's game
                         D         G
        I can follow the evening star
                       D          G       C/G     G
        Starlight,you never need somebody else's name
                          D         G
        If you follow the evening star
Verse 2:
                               G
        Have you ever known a sunset
                           D
        When the sky's on fire
                             G
        How you end another day,boy
                             C/G
        You be searching too far
                           G
        Like the desert i rode on
                       C/G
        Any memory is lost in the restless wind
                G
        I just lie beneath 
         D               G
        The evening star
Chorus.
Verse 3: (A tone higher)
                              A
        Have you ever held a woman
                           E
        In the California moonlight
                             A
        Put your money on a good night
                            D
        If you never been there
                          A
        It's a sight for sore eyes
                              D
        If you wanna see the wonders of the age
                A
        Making love beneath
        E               A
        The evening star
Chorus bis: (A tone higher)
                  A
        Evening star
                                      D
        Shine a little Heaven on a stranger with no dream
                  E
        Where you are
        You can see the loneliness i mean
                        A            E
        And if i gotta fight,i will never play
         A       D       A
        Somebody else's game
                         E         A
        I can follow the evening star
                       E          A       D       A
