*Matt Sharp*
*Goodbye West Coast*
*Puckett's Versus The Country Boy*
all guitars are tuned 1/2 step down
chords:
*strummed by guitar 3
intro:
guitars 1 and 2:
verse:
piano arranged for guitar:
(last measure)
hazy day / makin' my way
out somewhere on the motorhighway
headin' down / i'm east coast bound
another day's been lost and found
guitar 3 fill:
(hybrid picking)
verse 2:
piano arranged for guitar:
(after 4 measures)
*electric guitar
i wrote down a few things to say
i've got a few things left to say to my best friend's grave
and i'm hardly awake
i pull in to a stop on the motorhighway
silly day / i read in the trades
they're making films about friends i'd made
no sound / they just turned around
next thing you know they were lost then / found
chorus:
guitar 1:
guitar 3 fills:
(after 2 measures)
goodbye west coast
i'm going back / i'm going home
goodbye west coast
i'm going home
verse 3:
i broke down in a halfway town
news of the day is some poor girl drowned
the papers say / she went to the bay
the very next day they just found her that way
sunny day / traffic waits
a child waves to the motorcade /fade
ah the windows down
a pretty sound's been lost then / found (alright)
chorus 2 and ending:
goodbye west coast
i'm going back / i'm going home
goodbye west coast
i'm going home
i'm making my way to my best friend's grave
i'm making my way to my best friend's grave
a child waves to the motorcade
i'm making my way to my best friend's grave
im making my way / well
goodbye west coast
i'm going home
