C        F           C
Driftin' West of California

   F                          C
On highway 66, my truck broke down

            F
Yeah, and I found my pot of gold

In the heart of the dustbowl

Western angel, in a cowboy town

And I remember the first day that I saw her

F                         C
Standin' all alone in the rain

           F
And when I looked into her face

C               Am
There was not a trace

   F             G             C
Of heartache, of sorrow, or of pain
[Chorus]

Enough love to fill the whole wide world

And I remember the time I had to tell her

    F                                   C
The factory where I worked was shuttin' down

          F
Yeah, but she just looked at me

                   C               Am
And said what will be will have to be

    F              G               C
She said it with a smile and not a frown

Enough love to fill the whole wide world

No problem's too big or too small

           F
Yeah, with her right by my side

      C          Am
It'll be an easy ride

We may stumble But we'll never fall
