Winter's been real long this year
G
I know, cause I've been there
CFAm
Summer never seemed to come along
GC
and when it did, it felt all wrong
FAmGC
You've been sitting on the sidewalks wondering what went wrong with your life
FAmG
You've been walking to your bedside table and in the top drawer was a knife
FG2FG2F
Time to take your sweetheart by the hand and lead him to the Promised Land
G2FG2
The only place in North America not destroyed by the government
CFG2
San Francisco! You're going
CFG2
San Francisco! We're going
CFG2C
Don't you know you'll never ever want to turn back
CFAm
I have news for you my friend:
GC
I'm sticking by you until the end
FAmGC
Doctor's ordering you the same prescription, see, that worked wonders for me
FAmGC
I sat by myself in bars, I was driven home in state-owned cars
FAmG
I was filled with so much hate until I saw the Golden Gate
FG2FG2F
Until my sweetheart took me by the hand and led me to the Promised Land
G2FG2
The only place in North America not yet destroyed by the government
CFG2
San Francisco! You're going
CFG2
San Francisco! We're going
CFG2C
Don't you know you'll never ever want to turn back
FG2FG2
And it's time to pack your bags and call in sick and bring the toothbrush
FG2FG2
Withdraw from that savings account what's savings for, time doesn't wait and
FG2F
Hold the door, I'm coming, all that jazz
G2
like an escape from Alcatraz
CFG2
San Francisco! You're going
CFG2
San Francisco! We're going
CFG2C
Don't you know you'll never ever want to turn back
