verse 1: E Bm So you're drivin' away these miles A E So far away from your southern home E Bm Takin' your charms and dreams to the Golden State A E Make your way, seal your fate Chorus: E B That's when you're gone away E Where no one will hear you cry A B When you're late E For that west Texas sky verse 2: E Bm When you left home, I didn't think twice A E Oh, I knew, you had to roam E Bm I knew that life was getting you down A E You always feel alone when there's no one around Bridge: Fm Bm But who gets cut when the knife is dull? E C#m F And who gets lost when the map is full F Bm Nobody wins and nobody loses E D Just a handful of sorrows A D A And too many excuses verse 3: E Bm You wanted to walk beside the ocean A E Oh, and stand beside the sea E Bm And now you can't wait until tomorrow A There's so much to do E And so much to see
