[Verse 1]
G
Maybe I'm a loner,

C           G
Maybe I'm a man,

C           G
Maybe I'm a fool,

    D             G   
But tried to understand.

G
I've been a dreamer,

    C         G
And I've been around,

    C             G
And I've spent my time

   D             G      C  G
In many lonesome towns.
[Verse 2]
  G
I used to know a woman,

  C              G
I used to know a child,

    C                G
Sometimes she was so gentle,

    D                 G
Sometimes she'd be so wild.

  G
I gave her all my lovin,

    C                 G
And I gave her all my youth,

   C              G
So certain of the future,

   D                 G       G7
So sure we found the truth.
[Chorus]
        C
San Francisco Bay,

                        G
Where my love and I did run away,

                     Am
We were looking for another day,

D7                       G             G7
But we couldn't find the words to say...

        C
San Francisco Bay,

                        G
All the flowers that we gave away,

                        Am
Didn't know our sky was turing gray,

D7                            G               
  We were so young in San Francisco Bay.
[Interlude] G C G Am D G [Verse 3]
       G
So you see my darling,

     C                G
Just why I've been so strange,

     C           G
I've had so many heartaches,

     D              G
It's hard for me to change.

   G
So when you talk of lovin,

    C               G
And going away with me,

  C                  G
I still can't help remembering

    D                  G    G7
The way things used to be...
[Chorus]
        C
San Francisco Bay,

                        G
Where my love and I did run away,

                     Am
We were looking for another day,

D7                       G             G7
But we couldn't find the words to say...

        C
San Francisco Bay,

                        G
All the flowers that we gave away,

                        Am
Didn't know our sky was turing gray,

D7                            G          G7 
  We were so young in San Francisco Bay.
[Outro]
        C
San Francisco Bay,

                        G
Where my love and I did run away,

                     Am
We were looking for another day,

D7                       G              G7
But we couldn't find the words to say...

        C
San Francisco Bay,

                        G
All the flowers that we gave away,
