San Andreas Fault Line Blues

G                    C        G
Going to California, going to A
C                                 G
The sunshine burns my eyes, but I stare at it anyway
C                          G      F#*     Em
I can only hope to get the hang of it someday
G                     C          G
I got the San Andreas fault line blues

[Verse 2]
G                                C                 G
Might’ve once been Eden till the angels made their rift
C                             G
Paradise was swallowed in the great tectonic shift
C                          G      F#     Em
What would mankind know to do with such a gift
G                   C            G
Got the San Andreas fault line blues

[Verse 3]
G                             C              G
I cut up the coastline, I was trying to get free
C                                        G
From missions to the orchards, from the desert to the sea

C                         G         F#           Em
I could hear the voice of Tom Joad whisperin’ to me
G                       C           G
He got the San Andreas fault line blues

C                                     G
When the streets of Bakersfield have all but gone to rust
C                                        G             D
And the cowgirls of Bandit Town will be kickin’ up the dust
C                                   G     F#      Em
And the motorcycle preachers will pray for all of us
G                        C           G
They got the San Andreas fault line blues

[Verse 4]
G                                       C               G
One hundred Philip Kaufmans, Sin City patches on their vests
C                                  G
A hundred grievous angels whom in nudie suits were dressed
C                                     G  F#  Em
Drove a hundred red Camaros into a fiery sunset
G                        C            G
They got the San Andreas fault line blues
G                         Em        C        G
They got the San Andreas fault line bluuuuuues
