[G]
If you never rode west of the Arizona [D] border
You can turn the [G] other way, boy
But you never [C] get far
You'll be [G] living a lie
If you [C] want to see the wonders of the age
[G] You must [D] follow the [G] evening star
Evening star
Shine a little heaven [C] on a stranger with no dream
Where [Am] you are
You can see the loneliness I mean
If [G] I gotta fly, I can never play somebody else's game
I can follow the evening star
[D] You [G] never need somebody else's game
If you follow the evening star
Have you ever known a sunset
When the [D] sky's on fire
How you end another [G] day, boy
You'll be searching too [C] far
Like the desert [G] I rode on
Any memory [C] is lost in the restless wind
I [G] just lie [D] beneath the [G] evening star
Evening star
Shine a little [C] heaven on a stranger with no dream

In the California [E] moonlight
Put your money on a good night

Making [A] a love beneath [E]
