To give up everything I got
     G                 A        D
But like the sun i'm headed westward,
 G             A     D
Till I set in Hollywood

 A   D    Bm                 A

And if I'm so wrong you can say you knew
    A                 G    D         C     G  A D G A
I would be and i'll crawl home to you alone

   G                 A       D
I want a sky that's never ending
  G                A               Bm

         G    D         A
I'll be long gone you know
            A    D            Bm
And if I'm so wrong you can say you knew
    A                 G    D         C
I would be and i'll crawl home to you alone

  Bm                 A           G       D
I'm taking the best days of my life and leaving
Bm           A           G    D
  Given the best of what I got
Bm               A                G          D
  I live in the jetstream like a star still burning
C                          G A D G A
 I am living every day all in

 A   D    Bm                 A

         G    D         A
I'll be long gone you know
            A    D            Bm
And if I'm so wrong you can say you knew
    A                 G    D         C
I would be and i'll crawl home to you
           G     D        A
and i'll crawl home to you
           G     D       C         G  A D  G  A D
and i'll crawl home to you...  alone
