[Verse 1]
G C G D11 Do you know the way to San Jose? I've been away so long. D I may go wrong and lose my way. G C [tab]G D11 D I'm going back to find some peace of mind in San Jose.
[Bridge]
Bm7 Em7 Bm7 Em7 Bm7 L.A. is a great big freeway, put a hundred down and buy a car. G#dim7 Cmaj7/G D In a week, maybe two, they'll make you a star. Am7 D Weeks turn into years. How quick they pass D D D D N.C. and all the stars that never were are parking cars and pumping gas.
[Verse 2]
G C G D11 You can really breathe in San Jose? They've got a lot of space. D There'll be a place where I can stay. G C I was born and raised in San Jose, G D11 D I'm going back to find some peace of mind in San Jose.
[Bridge]
Bm7 Em7 Bm7 Em7 Bm7 Fame and fortune is a magnet, it can pull you far away from home. G#dim7 Cmaj7/G D With a dream in your heart you're never alone. Am7 D Dreams turn into dust and blow away D D D D N.C. and there you are without a friend, you pack your car and ride away.
[Outro]
G C G G I've got lots of friends in San Jose. G C G G Can't wait to get back to San Jose. G C G G Do you know the way to San Jose?

[Additional Lyrics, not used by Carpenters as far as I know]
I've got lots of friends in San Jose
Do you know the way to San Jose?
L.A. is a great big freeway
Put a hundred down and buy a car
In a week, maybe two, they'll make you a star
Weeks turn into years. How quick they pass
And all the stars that never were
Are parking cars and pumping gas
