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