ALL I SEE IS WEST (Gabe Zander/BMI) 2001

(slow arpeggio beat)

   D DpDb          Bm      G  D   A              D
As I look down the highway, a red sun paints the sky,
         D     DpDb     Bm      G       D        A            D
Bound to glide over the mountain, well away from these gazing eyes.
      D             DpDb         Bm        G        D          A            D
But I don't see the ridge or the sun's glow, or the surreal he paints as he sets;
       D        DpDb          Bm       G D   A        D
Just a thousand miles of your footsteps; all I see is west.

(chorus):
G    D        A       G    D       A
Slip quietly away, to roam so far away;
     G       DpDb             Bm       G            D    A         D
From now on, go and live your good life, where it's well away from me.

There's no way you'll be happy, with all you still desire.
Let your mind cloud up your vision; let your heart burn in you fires.
But pay me no attention; just do what you think best,
'Cause my hands, like yours, are bloodstained, and all I see is west.

(chorus)
(break)

So don't write me no letters, and don't pick up the phone;
Don't you dare start heading eastward, 'cause you won't find the man you've known.
We're indeed meant for each other, as a faded memory at best,
For now is my time to ramble, and all I see is west. 

(closing chorus):
And I'll slip quietly away, yeah, I'll roam so far away;
From now on, I'll live the good life, where you can't find me.
