The Beach Boys – Big Sur (Guitar)

D        F#m               Bm  D
Cashmere hills filled with evergreens

D                F#m            Bm       D
Flowin' from the clouds down to meet the sea

D        Em      G     A
With the granite cliff

A           D F#m Bm D
As a referee

D       F#m         Bm     D
Crimson sunsets and golden dawns

D        F#m             Bm      D
A mother deer with their newborn fawns

D         Em           G A
All under Big Sur skies

A                    D F#m Bm D
That's where I belong

G                D
Big Sur I've got plans for you

D      F#m      Bm    D
Me and mine are going to

D       F#m           Bm      D       Em    G A
Add ourselves to your lengthy list of lovers

A           D       F#m        Bm         D
And live in canyons covered in springtime green

D              F#m           Bm        D
Wild birds and flowers to be heard and seen

D           Em        G A
And with my old guitar

A                     D   F#m Bm D
I'll make up songs to sing

D              F#m              Bm      D
Where bubbling springs from the mountainside

D                F#m          Bm   D
Join the Big Sur river to the oceanside

D         Em          G A
Where the kids can look

A                     D   F#m Bm D
for sea shells at low tide

G           D
Big Sur my astrology

D            F#m  Bm      D
it says that I am made to be

D         F#m    Bm  D              Em   G A
Where the rugged mountain meets the water

A            D           F#m           Bm D
And so while stars shine brightly from up above

D             F#m          Bm      D
The fog rolls in through a redwood grove

D         Em    G   A
And to my dying fire

A                  D F#m Bm D
I think I'll add a log

D            F#m         Bm D
From time to time I must go away

D               F#m           Bm     D
But thoughts of Big Sur won't let me stay

D                F#m Bm D
Away from Big Sur

D
Oh, Big Sur
