verse 1
G
B7
Well she left me here halfway
Am
Between the bright lights of Los Angeles
C
D
And the tawdry nights of San Jose
G
B7
With Ecstacy and Ivory Wave
Am
And a backpack full of Captain Jack
C
D
To take me to an early grave
Am
And I?ve never been to paradise
Am
Standing on this corner by myself
D
You don?t have to tell me twice
G
And the world?s not gonna end
Em
If I could just pretend
C
That here?s a place to go
D
San Luis Obispo
G
And the streets may look the same
Em
Of any town by any name
C
Gonna find my afterglow
D
San Luis Obispo
G
Em
The difference between delight
C
Am
D
And loneliness could be a one way flight
D
G
In these San Luis Obispo nights
verse 2
G
B7
Where no one seems to mind
Am
If you string your words together with
C
D
Kool cigarettes and sparkling wine
G
B7
Keep the conversation light
Am
Wait until the girls get under-dressed
C
D
And then the talk gets less polite
Am
And I could stay here all my days
Am
But will I spend my life deciding if
D
Happiness is just a phase
G
And I hope that I?m not wrong
Em
Maybe here?s where I belong
C
Every winter free of snow
D
San Luis Obispo
G
But if she?s coming back again
Em
I would flee but until then
C
Every day my love it grows
D
San Luis Obispo
G
Em
The difference between delight
C
Am
D
And loneliness is never black or white
D
G
In these San Luis Obispo nights

Sorry you misunderstood

This kid with his intentions good

When all I had was two feet left to stand

And if you?re coming back through town
Am
D
Put your ear down to the ground
C
D
Cause this boy?s voice has changed into a man?s
G
And I hope that I?m not wrong
Em
Baby here?s where I belong

Every winter free of snow

But if she?s coming back again
