Anybody out there recognize this guitar?
I [G] think it has something to do [Ab] with California.
I just [C] can't remember.
[D] Anyway, I need your [G] help singing along on this one too, if you wouldn't [Eb] mind.
[G]
I'm gonna bring out [C] some other buddies from backstage to help me as [B] well.
Let's get Mr.
Tommy Shaw [G] back here.

[E]
Cool winds in my hair.
[G]
Whole mountain big dust.
[D]
Rising up from the air.
[F]
But my head is dust.
[C]
So chill on the night.
[Dm]
Hit me in my soccer [E] gym.
Head start for the night.
[Am] I stood in the doorway.
[E] I heard a voice in the hall.
[G]
I was sleeping with my stomach [D] in heaven.
[E] This could be hell.
[F]
She lit up the candles.
[C]
Stole me away.
[Dm]
But my voice was down for the cause.
I [E]
thought I heard her say.
[F] So do your job.
[C]
[E] So do the places that I've been.

She's got me losing my head.
[G] She got me breathing, breathing hard.
[A]
She's got me praying.
[F]
I'm having it tough.
But your [C] love was sweet sometimes.
[Dm]
So yes, you remember.
[E]
Unless you forget.
[Am] So I called and we drank.
[E] We drank in my wine.
We [G]
had a hand that carried me.
[D] I said, why [Gb] don't you shake [D] mine?
[F]
And she was once in a car.
[C] I'm far away.
[Dm]
You woke me in the middle of the night.
[E]
Does it hear me say?
[F]
I'm not giving up til I get [C] over you.
[E]
The places I've been.
[Am] You used to tell me you loved [Bm] me.
[Am] [F] I'm in pain, I'm in pain.
I'm in pain, I'm in pain.
I'm [C]
in pain, I'm in pain.
[Dm]
I [E]
was [Am]
almost stealing.
[E]
And she had a pain in her eyes. She [G] said,
You're all the women who'll [D] forget our all the right.
[F]
In the past she [C] was,
the gentle beast.
[Dm] We said we would but didn't want,
[E] to keep each other's peace.
[Am]
Well, last May I met with a girl
[E]
running from the door.
[G] And finally I said,
[D] Back to the time I was a boy.
[F]
We waxed and went and [C] went,
We walked around to her feet.
[Dm]
You can take out any time in your life,
[E] But you can't ever leave me.
[Am] I'm a pretty girl.
