*electric guitar

   i wrote down a few things to say
   i've got a few things left to say to my best friend's grave
   and i'm hardly awake
   i pull in to a stop on the motorhighway

   silly day / i read in the trades
   they're making films about friends i'd made
   no sound / they just turned around
   next thing you know they were lost then / found

   goodbye west coast
   i'm going back / i'm going home
   goodbye west coast
   i'm going home

verse 3:
   i broke down in a halfway town
   news of the day is some poor girl drowned
   the papers say / she went to the bay
   the very next day they just found her that way

   sunny day / traffic waits
   a child waves to the motorcade /fade
   ah the windows down
   a pretty sound's been lost then / found (alright)

chorus 2 and ending:
   goodbye west coast
   i'm going back / i'm going home
   goodbye west coast
   i'm going home

   i'm making my way to my best friend's grave
   i'm making my way to my best friend's grave
   a child waves to the motorcade
   i'm making my way to my best friend's grave
   im making my way / well

   goodbye west coast
   i'm going home
