G/F# 200033
[Intro]
Em C G x2
[Verse 1]
Em C G
Headed out to California
Em C G
Gone west to see the sun
Em C G
There's a fortune here if you got time, but I've found mine
Em C G
Buried in the golden hair she spun
Em C G
Sailin' off to search the islands
Em C G
Gone west for somethin' new
Em C G
Found paniolo and wave riders, but chose neither
Em C G
Picked the sweetest sugar cane they grew
[Chorus]
Em C G D
I've gone west, rollin' down the highway like a tumbleweed
Em C G D
I've gone west, where the canyons fall into the deep blue sea
Em C G D
Took a left from the hills of Tennessee, yeah
Em C G
I've gone west to bring the best back with me
Em C G
I've gone west to bring the best back with me
[Verse 2]
Em C G G/F#
I chased the light to Amarillo
Em C G G/F#
Where the wild horses run
Em C G
Caught a painted-angel moonrise, kinda spitfire
Em C G
Like a bullet from a smokin' gun
Em C G G/F#
Goin' back to mama's homeland
Em C G G/F#
Playin' in the field of dreams
Em C G
I was lookin' where the corn grows and the skies glow
Em C G
And I found your beauty in between
[Chorus]
Em C G D
I've gone west, rollin' down the highway like a tumbleweed
Em C G D
I've gone west, where the canyons fall into the deep blue sea
Em C G D
Took a left from the hills of Tennessee, yeah
Em C G
I've gone west to bring the best back with me
Em C G
I've gone west to bring the best back with me
[Bridge]
C G
And I follow the fadin' light
C G
'Til the stars are my map at night
Am Em
And if you come to get me and my house is empty
C D
It's safe to guess I've gone west
Em C G x2
[Chorus]
Em C G D
I've gone west, rollin' down the highway like a tumbleweed
Em C G D
I've gone west, where the canyons fall into the deep blue sea
Em C G D
Took a left from the hills of Tennessee, yeah
Em C G
I've gone west to bring the best back with me
Em C G
I've gone west to bring the best back with me
