By the String Cheese Incident
Intro is in Bb
(Bb) as i chased that evil sun toward my (Eb) home
i¹m (F) headed up the canyon all (Bb)alone
(Bb) my worries all behind me fade to (Eb)black
i got my (F) windows down city to my (Bb) back
(Gm)quiet contemplation a few (Eb)minutes to unwind
the (Gm) river¹s got me hypnotized and it (Eb) slows my busy (F)mind
i (Bb) know what¹s waiting for me up (Ab)around the next bend
i¹m (Eb)up the canyon (F) headed home again
(Bb) The sun is sinking low now in the (Eb) west
another (F) working day it put to the test (Bb)
i make a (Bb) turn the air grows cooler as i (Eb) climb
up the (F) canyon i feel better every time (Bb)
(Gm)quiet contemplation a few (Eb)minutes to unwind
the (Gm) river¹s got me hypnotized and i (Eb) love the smell of (F)pine
(Bb) tomorrow brings another day of working (Ab)
i¹m (Eb)up the canyon (F) headed home again
the (F) river cut a steady course
and (Eb) years have headed (Bb) seaward
(Eb)i follow that canyon back up(Bb)stream
the (D7) river¹s song is pure and true
(Eb7)and never ages
(F) it¹s as timeless as a dream
i (Bb) know what¹s waiting for me up (Ab)around the next bend
i¹m (Eb)up the canyon (F) headed home again
