Verse
G# F# F
The scenery rides by just like floats lost in a parade
E G#
Where the palms and tumbleweeds sail
C#/G# E G#
Right past the homes they stretch and they fade
C#/G# E F# D#
Rolling like movie credits far beneath the clear skies
[Chorus]
G# A#m
How wary does the West carry?
C#
So many sights, yeah, let's see the sights
G# A#m
Slow prayers with no answers
E B D# G#
Must go somewhere, fall away
Fm G#
And the Wild West is a slow pan
C# A#m
And the sunshine is fake
Fm G#
And the ocean is just painted
C# A#m
On a backdrop downtown
[Verse 2]
G# F# Fm
The miniature sprawls blur from the set lights and the heat
E G#
Where the summer's path with charades
C#/G# E G#
Right where the sidewalks crack and they meet
C#/G# E F# D#
Just like a sad, sad actress right before her last scene
[Chorus]
G# A#m
How wary does the West carry?
C#
So many sights, yeah, let's see the sights
G# A#m
Slow prayers with no answers
E B D# G#
Must go somewhere, fall away
Fm G#
And the Wild West is a slow pan
C# A#m
And the sunshine is fake
Fm G#
And the ocean is just painted
C# A#m C#
On a backdrop somewhere downtown
[Outro]
