Girl, I'm gonna warn ya, I'm leaving California
First thing in the morning me and the van lone and up the lane

We gotta go, we got another show, we're heading out to Reno, Jackson
                             C#m                 D                       E

And then I'll write you a song, you might hear it on the radio, baby, you never know
