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