E
Spent my days with a woman unkind,
Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine.
E
Made up my mind to make a new start,
Going to california
with an aching in my heart.
Someone told me theres a girl out there
With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair.
Took my chances on a big jet plane,
Never let them tell you
that theyre all the same.
The sea was red and the sky was grey,
Wondered how tomorrow could ever follow today.
The mountains and the canyons started
to tremble and shake
As the children of the sun began to awake.
Bm
Seems that the wrath of the gods
Got a punch on the nose and it started to flow;
I think I might be sink ing.
Bm
Throw me a line if I reach it in time
Ill meet you up there where the path
Runs straight and hi gh.
To find a queen without a king;
They say she plays guitar
and cries as she sings.
Ride a white mare in the footsteps of dawn
Tryin to find a woman whos never,
never, never been born.
Standing on a hill in my mountain of dreams,
Telling myself its not as hard, hard,
hard as it seems.
