Verse 1:
G              Cmaj7                Dsus D
 I'm blazing a trail that leads to vice
G             Em
So easily  enticed
   Am7 C  D    D7
By darker means
G                Cmaj7           Dsus  D
 When out of the wilderness of choice
G                      Em
I hear that one still voice
Am7  C  D
Call to me


Chorus:
   G
Go West young man (Go West young man)
   D
Go West young man
         C
When the evil goes East
   G
Go West young man (Go West young man)
   D
Go West young man
       C     G    C    D7sus
Find a heart that's golden


Verse 2 (same as verse 1):
Why must I wander like a cloud
Following the crowd
Well I don't know
But I'm asking for the will to fight
To wear the Crown of Life
And You say go
