Go West chords by Liz Phair

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Difficulty: Novice

Verse:
E      A   B  E
Safe on
E            A   B  E
The interstate
E      A   B  E
New York
                  E        A   B  E
Is three thousand miles away

Chorus:
             E       A         B         E
And I'm not looking forward to following through
         E            A             B         E
But it's better than always running back into you
     E         A           B    E
I've closed my eyes and my bank account
         E           A      B         E
And gone west, young man

Verse:
E     A   B  E
Take off
    E       A     B  E
The parking brake
   E      A   B  E
Go coasting
       E         A     B  E
Into a different state

Chorus:
             E       A         B         E
And I'm not looking forward to missing you
             E       A    B         E
But I must have something better to do
     E       A       B    E
I've got to tear my life apart
       E           A      B    E
And go west, young man
         E         A         B          E
And it feels like I've got something to prove
         E         A         B          E
But in some ways it's just something to do
         E      A       B     E
My friends turn me around and say
       E            A      E    A    E   A   E   A
You go west, young man

Verse:
E      A    B   E
Stepping
            E      A       B     E
Down off my platform shoes
E   A   B   E
Sixty-
            E      A    B    E
Nine in the afternoon

Chorus:
        E       A           B      E
And I'm waiting for someone in the know
     E      A           B       E
Like Pirner tells me on the radio
       E            A             B          E
Says, "Take it from someone who's been there before
        E          A      B     E
You go west, young man"
        E       A        B      E
And I'm looking for somebody to do
        E    A              B   E
My thinking for me 'till I come through
        E       A        B
The state-line highway sign says
              E            A      E    A    E   A   E   A
You have gone west, young man

Verse:
        E         A            B        E
And it feels like I've got something to prove
        E         A            B        E
But in some ways it's just something to do
        E         A    B      E
The state-line highway sign says

                E          A    E    A    E   A   E
You have gone west, young man
