C F C Am X 2
C F Am
WITH A PICK AND A SHOVEL, AN AXE AND A GUN
C F C
JUST A SWEATING LIKE THE GUILTY IN THE MID-DAY SUN
OUT IN OKLAHOMA WHERE THE HARD WINDS BLOW
SO I HEADED OUT WEST WHILE I WAS STILL YOUNG, YES I DID
C F C Am X 2
WELL I CROSSED THE PEDERNALES AND THE RIO GRANDE
AND WHEN I REACHED THE COLORADO I DRUNK IT DOWN
I WANNA COOL MY SOUL IN THAT BLUE BLUE SEA
WANNA SEE THE MANZANEETA AND THE JOSHUA TREE
F C Bb
WELL A STAR IS SHINING BRIGHT
F C Bb
IN THE NIGHT, IN THE CALIFORNIA SKY
C F C Am X 2
DOWN BY THE WATER AND THE SYCAMORE TREES
WHERE A CALIFORNIA GIRL MADE A MAN OUT OF ME
COOL WATER RUNNING IS A BEAUTIFUL SOUND
SO I TOOK HER BY THE HAND AND LAID SOME DEEP ROOTS DOWN
WELL THE FOX AND THE COUGAR THE HAWK AND THE BEAR
SAID "WE GOT PLENTY GOOD LEAD FOR YA'LL OUT HERE"
WELL I COME FROM OKLAHOMA WHEN I WAS QUITE YOUNG
WITH AN OLD PLOWIN' MULE AND MY DADDY'S GUN
REPEAT CHORUS
