B

[Verse 1]
       E          A      E
In the late great golden state
            C#m       B   E
Its getting hard to negotiate 
          E                 A       E
When your foot slips from a granite bay
       C#m        B      E
In the late great golden state

[Instrumental]
E  A  E  B  E

[Verse 2]
       E          A      E
In the late great golden state
         C#m            B      E
I don't do much but I'm always late
                 A      E 
I ain't old just out of date
       C#m        B      E
In the late great golden state

[Chorus]
         C#m      B                 A   Asus4 A           Asus4 A
I caught one last glimpse of a palomino        (palomino)
       C#m       B                      A  Asus4 A             Asus4 A
When I drove out west to see the purple sage      (purple sage)
            E       A              E         A
Then as the canyons burned and the mountains crumbled
    F#m                       B  B7
The last cowboy band left the stage
  E              A      E
I ain't old just out of date
       C#m        B      E
In the late great golden state

[Instrumental]
E   A  E  B  E (x2)

[Chorus]
         C#m      B                 A   Asus4 A           Asus4 A
I caught one last glimpse of a palomino        (palomino)
       C#m       B                      A  Asus4 A             Asus4 A
When I drove out west to see the purple sage      (purple sage)
            E       A              E         A
Then as the canyons burned and the mountains crumbled
    F#m                       B     B7
The last cowboy band left the stage

[Verse 3]
       E          A      E
In the late great golden state
     C#m              B      E
Is a nice place for a clean  slate
               E             A      E 
But leave your expectations  at the gate 
       C#m        B       E 
Of the late great golden  state cause
         E                        A         E
They can pack you up and send you home in a crate
             C#m         B      E           
Stamped the late great  golden state
