When your foot slips from a granite bay

In the late great golden state

I don't do much but I'm always late

I ain't old just out of date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I ain't old just out of date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]

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
