#1.
Amaj7 D Amaj7 It's a cold and rainy Friday night, city life's E11 D got me all uptight. G Gbm G My mind keeps wandering far away, vibrations tell F Em me it's time to leave L.A.
CHORUS:
A D A D Going back to Big Sur..wish I could leave today. A Db Gbm I want to walk beneath those Redwood trees..just Bm E A G south of Monterey.
#2.
A Bm A A little cabin, quiet and alone..no television and Bm D no telephone. G Gbm G Water trickling down this little stream..makes you F E Em G wonder, is it all just a dream?
CHORUS:
A D A D Going back to Big Sur..this time, I might just stay. A Db Gbm Bm Going back and straighten out my head..just south E A G of Monterey.
BRIDGE:
Cmaj7 G Cmaj7 F Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Cmaj7 Friendly people all around, never try to put you down. G Fmaj7 A Am Makes you feel like someone new and they don't care Ab C D G Eb D who you are or what you do.
#3.
A Bm A Bm Guess I'll drive up highway one..dig the ocean, kiss D the setting sun. G Gbm G The stars dancing in the sky, sort of puts you on a F A Em7 natural high....
CHORUS:
A D A D Going back to Big Sur..this time, I might just stay. A Db Gbm Bm Going back and straighten out my head..just south E A G A of Monterey...(and that girl..)
