Summer never seemed to come along
G C
and when it did, it felt all wrong
F Am G C
You've been sitting on the sidewalks wondering what went wrong with your life
F Am G
You've been walking to your bedside table and in the top drawer was a knife
F G2 F G2 F
Time to take your sweetheart by the hand and lead him to the Promised Land
G2 F G2
The only place in North America not destroyed by the government
C F G2
San Francisco! You're going
C F G2
San Francisco! We're going
C F G2 C
Don't you know you'll never ever want to turn back

I'm sticking by you until the end
F Am G C
Doctor's ordering you the same prescription, see, that worked wonders for me
F Am G C

Until my sweetheart took me by the hand and led me to the Promised Land
G2 F G2
The only place in North America not yet destroyed by the government

Hold the door, I'm coming, all that jazz

like an escape from Alcatraz
C F G2
San Francisco! You're going

C F G2 C
Don't you know you'll never ever want to turn back
