[Intro]
D

[Verse 1]
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]
F  G  D    x2


[Verse 2]
G
Took my chances on a big jet plane
                                             D
Never let 'em 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 start to tremble and shake
                                     D
As the children of the sun begin to awake


[Bridge]
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


[Verse 3]
   G
To find a queen without a king;
                                       D
They say she plays guitar and cries, and sings (lalala-la)
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


[Outro]
F  G  D    x2
