Liz Phair – Go West (Guitar)

E      A   B  E
Safe on

E            A   B  E
The interstate

E      A   B  E
New York

                  E        A   B  E
Is three thousand miles away

             E       A         B         E
And I'm not looking forward to following through

         E            A             B         E
But it's better than always running back into you

     E         A           B    E
I've closed my eyes and my bank account

         E           A      B         E
And gone west, young man

E     A   B  E
Take off

    E       A     B  E
The parking brake

   E      A   B  E
Go coasting

       E         A     B  E
Into a different state

             E       A         B         E
And I'm not looking forward to missing you

             E       A    B         E
But I must have something better to do

     E       A       B    E
I've got to tear my life apart

       E           A      B    E
And go west, young man

         E         A         B          E
And it feels like I've got something to prove

         E         A         B          E
But in some ways it's just something to do

         E      A       B     E
My friends turn me around and say

       E            A      E    A    E   A   E   A
You go west, young man

E      A    B   E
Stepping

            E      A       B     E
Down off my platform shoes

E   A   B   E
Sixty-

            E      A    B    E
Nine in the afternoon

        E       A           B      E
And I'm waiting for someone in the know

     E      A           B       E
Like Pirner tells me on the radio

       E            A             B          E
Says, "Take it from someone who's been there before

        E          A      B     E
You go west, young man"

        E       A        B      E
And I'm looking for somebody to do

        E    A              B   E
My thinking for me 'till I come through

        E       A        B
The state-line highway sign says

              E            A      E    A    E   A   E   A
You have gone west, young man

        E         A            B        E
And it feels like I've got something to prove

        E         A            B        E
But in some ways it's just something to do

        E         A    B      E
The state-line highway sign says

                E          A    E    A    E   A   E
You have gone west, young man
