[Verse]
D         A         Em     D
 Left his day job behind...
Bm               D                  Bm
 Every fool dies tryin', to get his back.

D        A             Em     D
 Kicked around, on the bum...
Bm              D                     Bm
 Like a child I scold him, for broken toys.

[Chorus]
G                                   D
Can you help me to find Nevada, California?
                 A   G               D
The last thing I did, was I tried to hold her.

[Verse]
D            A         Em     D
 The station master is gone...
Bm                    D                  Bm
And I'm your lovesick cousin, that never wins.

D          A               Em   D
 First you twist, then you turn...
Bm                    D                    Bm
 You're on life's icy mountain, dear passenger.

[Chorus]
G                                   D
Can you help me to find Nevada, California?
G                                   D
Can you help me to find Nevada, California?
                 A   G                D
The last thing I did,  was I tried to hold her.

 The station master is gone...
Bm                  D                       Bm
Behind the lies you wonder, if there lies a jewel.

D         A              Em    D
 Could it be something's wrong...
Bm                      D               Bm
 A love that won't talk to you in seven winds.

G                                                       D
Can you help me to find Nevada, California? Nevada, California?
                 A   G                D          A  G  D
The last thing I did,  was I tried to hold her.
