Came here on my own on a long summer drive
G+G           C majorC      D MajorD
from the desert to the east shining sea,
G+G             C majorC         D MajorD      G+G
and in the hidden valley I found the sweetest stars in the sky,
   G+G       C majorC      D MajorD
so I sat up at the top of the tree.

And everybody else was dancing free,
C majorC     D MajorD

I’ve seen strong men crawl and babies rise.

Ridden on the last train out to Brooklyn late at night,
G+G         C majorC      D MajorD
snuck in with the water on my feet.

And everybody else was fast asleep,
C majorC     D MajorD
everybody else.
