[Intro]
D D C G D
D D C G D
[Verse]
D
I left Louisiana for a fifty thousand watt antenna
C G D
On a sinner's prayer, three chords, and the truth
D
All them states got your name
Greyhound bus and a walk of fame
C G D
It's a hard lesson in what distance can do
[Chorus]
G
If God made the two cities closer
A
I'd be right beside you
Bm A G
But then where would the Grand Canyon be
D C
I'll meet you in Nashville, California
G D D
Or L.A.aa Tennessee
[Verse]
D
Dreamers dreams are never done
Gypsies songs never sung
C G D
Spit out the bones, say to hell with all the rest
D
Souls like ours are always lookin' for
A way into love, a way out the door
C G D
Just keep that compass pointed east and west
[Chorus]
G
No place this cowboy heart won't go
A
Star lined streets or old back roads
Bm A G
Broadway bars or the land of silver screens
D C
So I'll meet you in Nashville, California
G D D
Or L.A.aa Tennessee
[Break]
A
I've never been a patient man
G
I've tried like hell to make amends
D A
Two thousand miles and beautiful plans
A
Tell these western stars to keep watchin' over
Bm G
The city of angels, I'm comin' for ya
D A A
The only way I know 'til I grow wings
[Verse]
D
I'll get in this old pickup truck
And I'll drive west 'til the sun comes up
C G D
'Cause I love you and the way you love your dreams
[Chorus]
G
Just know I'd move these mountains for you
A
Every grain of desert sand
Bm A G
And if you ever wanna settle down with me
D C
We'll call it Nashville, California
G D C G
Or L.A.aa Tennessee
D C
Call it Nashville, California
G D C G D
Or L.A.aa Tennessee
[Outro]
C
Mmm, where the dreamers go
G D C G D
And the stars hang low
C
Oh, where the dreamers go
D C G D
And the stars hang low-ow-ow-ow-ow
C G D
Mmm mm mmm mmm mm mm
