In 1972 it's a collectible it may not be an antique yet, but it's it's closing in and I never ever
Thought I would be living near the town of Salinas and when I wrote it.
I've got a situation
going on so
Last couple years.
I've been starting to sing it [F#m] more and more.

[E]
[F#m] down the main [D] highway [A] to the flat Prairie town
She [F#m] hopes just to [D] see him [A] again
There's no one can tell her what [E] she's bringing down
She's the [B] kindest far over the pain
[A]
[F#m] [D] Everyone knows she's [A] unable to love
[F#m] That's the story [A]
wherever he goes
Well, maybe she's counting on help from above
[F#] For an answer [A] that nobody knows
[F#m] To see her [D] again [A] just tears me apart
[C#m] When we [B] meet there's a kind of a [E] string
[F#m] But the call of [D] her work [A] and the same broken heart
We'll [F#m] take her back [B] to Salinas again

[F#m] Soon I'll pass [A] by Salinas on the way go
I'll [F#m] see the trees [D] in the meadows [A] so green
[F#m] Beside me [D] the man [A] whom the heart does go
[E] From Haiti [B] with the sad golden dream
[A]
[E] [A]
[F#m] Not
A day does [D] go by I [A] don't wonder inside
[F#m] How often [A] his heart hears her name
And he is [D] there a yearning [A] that he needs to hide
[F#m] To go back to [D] Salinas [A] again
[F#m] To go back to [E] Salinas [A] again
[E] To go back to [A] Salinas [E] again
