[tab]E                       B
[tab]E                                 A
From the foggy Golden Gate to the great Michigan lakes 

E       B               A
I wanna see the states 

E
Oh, how did you get to this town? 

E                                       B
Was it where you were born or did you move around? 

E                       A
California’s got places down south 

Fm                           B
We can lay in the sun on the beach 

E                       A
Drive up the Oregon coast 

E                          A
Its rocky and lighthouses dot it for most of the way 

Fm                      B                       A
On the tips of Olympian peaks 

E                    B
North to Alaska and we had no fear 

E                               B
We were on to the future, the final frontier 

C#m     
While in Hawaii they’re probably righteously 

                                B
Surfing the worlds greatest breaks 

E       A       E
But oh, Idaho 

A       E
Has got the most 

B       C#m
Respectable 

A
Folks we know 

E                          A                    C#m             B
We’ll follow the Rockies & never stop roaming Through Colorado, Montana, Wyoming 

A                         C#m                   
Down in New Mexico, we’re eating green chilies 

F#m                        B                 A
We’ll hit the slopes up in Park City, Utah 

E                       A
Well, I wanna see the states 

E                B
I wanna see the states 

E                    B
From Nevada's Vegas strange to the wicked pines of Maine 

E       B       A               E
I wanna see the states 

E                               A
Deep down in Texas, there’s bright starry skies 

E                   B
Oklahomians all realize 

E                                   C#m
That the sun never sets we’re just spinning around 

A                       B
Spun up to Kansas and clung to the ground 

E                               A
Slipped off the great plain to Southern Missouri 

E                            B
A creek and a sunset with no need to hurry 

E                         A
Just lazily drifting the great Mississippi 

E                       B
Through Tennessee, Arkansas and Kentucky 

E                       C#m
Down to the bayous of Louisiana 

A                            B
Glowing fireflies down in Alabama 

A                                       F#m
Lit up your face like you’re next to the moon 

A                            B
South Carolina, we’ll be getting there soon 

E       A       E
But Ohio 

A            E
Has got the most 

F#m     
Festivals 

    B
And swing votes 

A                             C#m
Span Indiana right over the crossroads 

A                    B
In Illinois we had deep dish and hot dogs 

A                       E
Cornhuskers score a Nebraskan point and I 

F#m                  B                          A
Hear some music from downtown Des Moines Iowa 

E                   A
And I wanna see the states 

E               B
I wanna see the states 

E                                   B
From Florida’s southern cays to the Delaware tax rates 

E       B          A
I wanna see the states 

E                            A
I wanna dip my feet into the sand

E                          B 
I wanna dive into the Rio Grande 

E                                  B
From the tall Virginian trees to a sultry Georgian breeze 

E       B         A
I wanna see the land 

 E
Fall in New Hampshire 

A
We stopped by the woods 

E                           B
With paid parking meters by rogue Robin Hoods 

E                  A
Freedom and unity o’er in Vermont 

F#m                             B
There’s hope in Rhode Island to live how we want 

E                           A
So live how you like but I love Massachusetts 

F#m                         B
New York's got places where we can get loose 

E                              A
It's like everything you ever wanted at once 

F#m                           B
We’ll go upstate, and we can stay there for months 

E                                A
We’ll cut through the forests to Hartford, Connecticut 

E                          A
Can’t help but love famous New Jersey etiquette 

C#m               A             
O’er in DC on the Capitol Hill 

F#m                    B
Historic decisions are being made still 

E                                F#m
The West Virginian mountains are wild and wonderful 

E                    B
North Carolina where autumn is colorful 

F#m                   B
Crabbing in Maryland, hoagies in Harrisburg 

A             B                 A
Pennsylvania declared us America 

C#m             A
But it's far 

C#m             A
It's far 

C#m
Oh it's far 

                   B
Yeah, it's far between them 

F#m
But take it from me 

E                                    B
It’s worth all the long car rides to see them 

F#m
Just wait till you see 

E               B
Yosemite or New England 

F#m                         E                   B               A
They’ll make you believe in life, liberty, and freedom

From the lakes of Minnesota
