[A] [D]
[A] [Bm]
[A] It's a cold and rainy [D] Friday night
[A] City [D] life's got me all uptight
[G] My mind keeps [F#m] wondering far away
[G] Vibrations tell me [F] it's time to [E] leave L.A.
[Em] [G#] [A] I'm going back to [D] Vixen
Wish [A] I could leave [D] today
I [A] wanna walk beneath [C#] those redwood [F#m] trees
[Bm] Just [E] sight of [A] Monterey
[G]
[A] A little cabin, [D] quiet and low
[A] No television [D] and no telephone
[G] Water trickling [F#m] down this little stream
[G] Makes you wonder, is [F] it all [E] just a dream?
[G] [G#]
[A] I'm going back to [D] Vixen
This [A] time I might [D] just stay
I'm [A] going back and [C#] straightening out my [F#m] hair
[Bm] Just sight [E] of [A] Monterey
[G] [G] Groovy [C] people [F] all around
[C] Never try [F] to put you down
[Em] Makes [G] you feel [F] like someone new
[Am] They don't [G#] care who you [C] are or what [D] [G] you do
[A] Guess I'll drive [D] up Highway 1
[A] Dig the ocean, [D] kiss the setting sun
[G] The stars [F#m] dancing in the sky
[G] Sort of puts [F] you on a [Am] natural high
[E] I'm [Em] [A] going back to [D] Vixen
[A] This time I might [D] just stay
[A] I'm going back and [C#] straightening out my [F#m] hair
[Bm] Just [E] sight of [A]
Monterey
[G] [A]
And that girl
