[G]Chewin' on a piece of grass, walkin' down the road.[Dm]
(lead) (Riff 1)
(Rhy) G Dm
Tell me, how long you gonna stay here Joe?
(lead) (Riff 2)
(rhy) G Dm
Some people say this town don't look good in snow.

(lead) Tacet until end of chorus
(rhy) G Dm
You don't care, I know.


(Chorus)

[G]Ventura highway in the [Dm]sunshine

Wh[G]ere the days are longer, the nights are stronger than mo[Dm]onshine
[G]You gotta go, I k[Dm]now       [F#m]
[G]'Cause the free wind is blowin' [Dm]through your hair
And the d[G]ays surround your [Dm]daylight there
[G]Seasons crying no[Dm] despair
[G]Alligator lizards i[Dm]n the air
[G]In the air
(Do the intro, except switch riffs one and two with one another.)


(Verse 2)

(Lead) (Riff 2)
(Rhy) G Dm
Wishin' on a fallin' star, waitin' for the early train


(Lead) (Riff 1)
(Rhy) G Dm
Sorry son, But I been hit by Purple rain

(Lead) (Riff 2)
(Rhy) G Dm
Aw, c'mon Joe, You can always change your name

(Lead) Tacet
(Rhy) G Dm
Thanks a lot son, just the same.


(chorus)

To get the timing right with the words, you'll have to listen to the song.

Also, if you have 3 guitar players, if the 3rd plays the same riffs that the lead plays,
except 3 frets higher, it gives a really nice sound. You don't need a 12-string, but it
helps.
