Ventura Highway chords
America 1972 (Dewey Bunnell)
Capo II
F Em 5x
F
Chewing on a piece of grass,
Em
walking down the road
F Em
Tell me, how long you gonna stay here, Joe?
F Em
Some people say this town don't look good in snow
F Em
You don't care, I know
F Em
Ventura Highway, in the sunshine
F
Where the days are longer,
Em
the nights are stronger than moonshine
F Em G
You're gonna go, I know
F Em
'Cause the free wind is blowin' through your hair,
F Em
and the days surround your daylight there
F Em
Seasons crying no despair,
F Em G F
alligator lizards in the air, in the air

Wishin' on a falling star,

Sorry boy, but I've been hit by purple rain

Aw, come on, Joe, you can always change your name

Thanks a lot, son, just the same

Ventura Highway, in the sunshine

Where the days are longer,

the nights are stronger than moonshine

alligator lizards in the air, in the air
