In the (D) late great (G) golden (D) state
Its getting (Bm) hard to ne(A)goti(D)ate 
When you're one slip from a (G) grim (D) fate
In the (Bm) late great (A) golden (D) state

In the (D) late great (G) golden (D) state
I (Bm) don't do much but I'm (A) always (D) late
I ain't old just (G) out of (D) date
In the (Bm) late great (A) golden (D) state

I caught (Bm) one last (A) glimpse of a palom(G)ino 
When I (Bm) drove out (A) west to see the purple (G) sage
Then as the (Bm) canyons (A) burned and the (Bm) mountains (A) crumbled
The (Em) last cowboy band left the (A) stage

I (E) ain't old just (G) out of (D) date
In the (Bm) late great (A) golden (D) state

I caught (Bm) one last (A) glimpse of a palom(G)ino 
When I (Bm) drove out (A) west to see the purple (G) sage
Then as the (Bm) canyons (A) burned and the (Bm) mountains (A) crumbled
The (Em) last cowboy band left the (A) stage

Yeah, the (D) late great (G) golden (D) state
Is a (Bm) nice place for a (A) clean (D) slate
But leave your expectatioons (G) at the (D) gate 
Of the (Bm) late great (A) golden (D) state cause
They can pack you up and send you (G) home in a (D) crate
Stamped the (Bm) late great (A) golden (D) state
