You [D]
[A] [E]
fell in love with America [D] when you were 12 years old
[A] By 17 you knew you had to see [E] it all
You loved [B] your dad and the love he had [D] for your mother so
[A] You had to get out and go chasing that [E] sweet car
[D]
[A] [E]
I met you there in Texas somewhere
[D] On the third road there
[Am] On the side of the road
In some torn up clothes
[E] With a pistol in my pocket
I didn't trust no one
But you said baby don't run
[D] I'll take you anywhere
[A] So I hopped right in
Had a look to spend
[E] And at least your truck beats walking
And you said hey
Do you wanna see the [D] west with me?
[A] Cause love's out [E] there and I can't leave it be
And I said honey
Love's never meant [D] much to me
[A] Oh
But I'll come with you
If [E] you're sure it's what you need
So we [B] made off for California
To find [A] your [Bm] lover
Driving day [E] and night
In every small town diner
Saw her face at least once or twice
But in these motel rooms
I started to [F#] see you [D] differently
Oh
[A] Cause for the first [E] time since I was a child
I could see a man who wasn't angry
And he said it's been a long damn time
Since I left Florida
[D] No one left to leave
[C#m] And no one left to [A] love
But now that I [F#] met you
I finally know just where [E] I'm heading
[B] [E] And we found heaven and hell
With your western sunshine
[C#m] Met my deep southern way
And you got [A] lost in it
And yet you found yourself
[E] Hard [Bm] pressed for air and sweating
[E] And you said hey
Do you wanna see the west with [D] me?
[A] Cause love's out there
And I can't [E] leave it be
And I said honey
[D] Love's never meant much to me
[A] But I'll come with you
If you're sure it's what [E] you need
[D]
[A] Once [E]
we reached the coast
You said end of the line
[D] We finally reached the edge
After all this time
[E] I didn't find my love
[A] But I still made it this [E] far without it
And then you turned to me
And stared into me deep
[D] And said well maybe not
Cause look at what I've got
[A] You might not be mine
[E] And you [E] said hey
Do you wanna see the [D] west with me?
[A] Cause love's out there
[E] And I can't leave it be
And I said honey
Love's never meant much [D] to me
But [A] I'll come with you
If you're sure it's what [E] you need
And [D] I said honey
[A]
[E] Yeah
Love's never [D] [B]
[E] meant much to me
Cause all of your dumb luck
Is the only place I think I'd ever wanna be
[A]
[B] [E]
[D] Yeah [E] Mmm [A] Ooh
Yeah
[A] Ooh
[E]
[A] [E] Ah
Ah Oh Ah Ah
[A] Oh
[E] Ooh [D] [A] Oh
[Bm] [E]
[C#m] Oh
Ooh Ah
[E] Ah [D] Oh
[E] Ba -ba-ba-bop
Ba-ba-ba-bop Oh
