[Intro]
E Esus4 E Esus4
[Verse 1]
E Esus4
We got in your car
E
and we hit the
highway
E Esus4
Eastern sun was
rising
E
over the mountains
Asus2
Yellow and blood red
Gbsus4 Asus2
bits
E
like a kaleidoscope
Esus4 E
E Esus4
And flaming swords may
E
guard the garden of Eden
E Esus4
But we consulted maps
E
from earlier days
Asus2
Dead languages on our
Gbsus4 Asus2
tongues
Holding on to our
E Esus4 E
last hope

[Chorus]

And the day was bright
and fine
A
And the highway sign said,
B A B
“San Bernadino welcomes you”’
E
[Verse 2]
E Esus4 E
I checked us into our motel
and filled the bathtub
E Esus4
And you got in the warm
E
warm water
I pulled rose petals
Asus2 Gbsus4 Asus2
from my pocket
E
I loved you so much
Esus4 E
just then
E Esus4
And it was hard but you
were
E
brave, you are splendid
E Esus4 E
And we will never be alone
in this world
Asus2
no matter what they
Gbsus4 Asus2
say
E
We’re gonna be
Esus4 E
okay
[Chorus]
B
We were safe inside
A
and our new son cried,
B A B
“San Bernadino welcomes you”
[Outro]
