[Am]
[C] [G]
[C] He's been out here [D] for a month now,
[G] following some [C] elusive call
He [D] put half his life [G] behind him, and [C] one day he just up [D] and hit the wall
[C] And it might be [D] an illusion,
[G] but he's got to go [C] and see
[D] If there's [G] not a place for him
[C] somewhere west [D] of Laramie
[G] Somewhere west [Am] of Laramie
[C] I hope to find [D] the rest of me
[G] And it might be [Am] the best of [A] me
[C] [D] Somewhere west [G] of Laramie
[C] His friends all [D] call him crazy,
[G] they think he's [C] lost his mind
[D] He's [G] treading water with head,
[C] for everything [D] he's left behind
[C] He's got no [D] destination,
[G] it changes [C] with the breeze
[D] And the dust [G] upon the dashboard
[C] Somewhere west [G] of [D] Laramie
Somewhere west [Am] of Laramie
[C] I hope to find [D] the rest of me
[G] And it might be [Am] the best of me
[C] [D] Somewhere west [G] of Laramie
[D] There's nothing [G] on the radio,
[C] he's writing [G] his own [A] song
[Am] Building [Em] to the chorus,
[C] with everything that [D] comes along
[C] And he's got no [D] preconceptions,
[G] he's just [C] satisfied to see
[D] A windshield's bigger [G] than a mirror
[A]
Out [C] here west [D] of Laramie
[G] Somewhere west [Am] of Laramie
[C] I hope to find [D] the rest of me
[G] And it might be [Am] the best of me
