	        Intro: A (8x) 

A                   A 
  Headed 'cross the border 
A                      A 
Looking for a place to play 
            A 
I left the sun behind 
A 
I don't mind 
        A                       A 
But I think that it looked like rain

              C      E F E       D                  A 
Hold back the water           I gotta find time to burn 

A                 A 
 Headed west to Georgia 
A                        A 
Looking for the road to L.A 
              A 
They say the weather's fine 
         A 
But the sun don't shine 
             A                   A 
'Cause the smog's always in the way 

              C      E F E       D                  A 
Hold back the water           I gotta find time to burn

  I've never played no smoker 
     A                        A 
You know I've never played no hotdog 
      A 
The preacher say 
      A 
I was born this way 
        A                 A 
With a storm cloud in my heart
