Intro:

  C    F    G    C        F       G
A surf rock band from the land of plenty
C    F    G     C       F          G
Surf rock bands with no surf, just pine trees

Verse 1:
Em               C5              G
Struck by being ashamed of your old space
Em   C5             G5
Just wanting that mean heat
Em                C5           G
You bleached your hair and you pawned your skis
             Em               C5              G
And then you sold out for the shade of the palm tree scene
             Em       C5               G5
And said, "Oh, what a drag! Oh, what a backwards scheme
       Em                   C5              G
'Cause here things go from gray to gray and back to gray again
             Em               C5         G
And they get green and go to gray and go back to gray again
               G
So he said
Chorus:
G5   A5    G5    A5   G5
     Head south! Head south!
B5   D5    B5    D5   B5      G
     Head south! Head south! (Head south)
G5   A5    G5    A5   G5
     Head south! Head south!
B5   D5    B5    D5   B5      G
     Head south! Head south! (Head south)
G5   A5    G5    A5   G5
     Head south! Head south!
B5   D5    B5    D5   B5      G
     Head south! Head south! (Head south)
G5   A5    G5    A5   G5
     Head south! Head south!
B5   D5    B5    D5   B5      G
     Head south! Head south! (Head south)

Verse 2:
  C    F    G    C        F       G
A surf rock band from the land of plenty
C    F    G     C       F          G
Surf rock bands with no surf, just pine trees

Verse 1:
Em               C5              G
Struck by being ashamed of your old space
Em   C5             G5
Just wanting that mean heat
Em                C5           G
You bleached your hair and you pawned your skis
             Em               C5              G
And then you sold out for the shade of the palm tree scene
   Em       C5                G
Surrounded, cut off jeans and cut off jeans are
Em       C5            G
What you mean when you say

Chorus:
G5   A5    G5    A5   G5
     Head south! Head south!
B5   D5    B5    D5   B5      G
     Head south! Head south! (Head south)
G5   A5    G5    A5   G5
     Head south! Head south!
B5   D5    B5    D5   B5      G
     Head south! Head south! (Head south)
G5   A5    G5    A5   G5
     Head south! Head south!
B5   D5    B5    D5   B5      G
