INTRO: A  D  A  F#m  E  A

       A          D      A
In the late great Golden State
             F#m       E   A     
It's getting hard to negotiate
                            D    A
When you're one slip from a grim fate
       F#m         E       A
In the late great Golden State


INTRO

       A          D      A
In the late great Golden State
  F#m                   E      A
I don't do much but I'm always late
                          D      A
Now I ain't old, I'm just out of date
       F#m        E      A
In the late great Golden State


BRIDGE:
         F#m              E          D
I caught one last glimpse of the palimino
       F#m            E                 D
When I drove out west to see the purple sage
             F#m         E               F#m           E  
Then as the, the canyons burned and the, the mountains crumbled
    Bm7                       E
The last cowboy band left the stage

    A                     D      A
Now I ain't old, I'm just out of date
       F#m        E      A
In the late great Golden State


INTRO


BRIDGE

         A          D      A
Yeah the late great Golden State
     F#m              E     A
Is a nice place for a clean slate
                            D      A
But leave your expectations at the gate
       F#m        E      A
Of the late great Golden State

                A                        D         A
'Cause they can pack you up and send you home in a crate
            F#m        E      A
Stamped the late great Golden State
              F#m        E      A
Yeah it's the late great Golden State
