Spent my days with a woman unkind                     mandoline: g f♯  e d

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

Took my chances on a big jet plane
Never let them tell you that they're all the same
Oh, the sea was red and the sky was grey
I wondered how tomorrow could ever follow today
The mountains and the canyons started to tremble
And shake as the children of the sun began to awake, watch out

  Dm(sus4) [0xx767]
  Seems  that the wrath  of the Gods  got a punch
  On the nose  and it star  ted to flow
                     Aadd4 [x22220]
  I think I might be sinking

  Throw  me a line  if I reach  it in time 
  I'll meet you up there  where the path  runs straight 
  And high

D(sus2)

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

Dm  G6  D(sus2)  x 2
