INTRO  D5  B5  G5 
VERSE I 
D5                             B5 
We counted the stars on the fourth of July, 
G5                               A5 
Wishin' we were rockets burstin into the sky. 
D5                               B5 
Talkin' about the redemption...leavin' things behind, 
        G5                   A5              D5      B5   G5    A5           
As the sun sank west of the Mendocino county line. 
 

D5                                    B5 
As fierce as Monday mornin' feelin' washed away 
G5                          A5 
I orchestrated paradise but couldn't make you stay. 
D5                                   B5 
You dance with horses, through the sands of time 
       G5                     A5                 D5 
As the sun sinks west of the Mendocino county line. 
G5                                             A5 
I have these pictures and I keep these photographs 
                          G5                             A5 
To remind me of a time. These pictures and these photographs 
                       G5                              B5 
Let me know I'm doing fine. I used to make you happy once 
                     G5                   A5                 D5    B5    G5    A5 
Upon a time but the sun sank west of the Mendocino county line.  

VERSE II 
 

D5                             B5 
The two of us together, felt nothing but right 
G5                            A5 
Feelin' near immortal every Friday night. 
D5                              B5 
Lost in our convictions, lips stained with wine 
        G5                    A5                D5 
As the sun sank west of the Mendocino county line. 

 II 
G5                                             A5 
I have these pictures and I keep these photographs 
                          G5                             A5 
To remind me of a time. These pictures and these photographs 
                       G5                              B5 
Let me know I'm doing fine. I used to make you happy once 
                     G5                   A5                 D5 
Upon a time but the sun sank west of the Mendocino county line.  

BRIDGE 
C5                                  G5 
I don't talk to you too much these days 
C5                                     D5 
I just thank the Lord pictures don't fade 
C5                    G5 
I spent with an angel just passing through 
A5 
Now all that's left is this image of you.

VERSE III 
D5                             B5 
We counted the stars on the fourth of July, 
G5                               A5 
Wishin' we were rockets burstin into the sky. 
D5                               B5 
Talkin' about the redemption...leavin' things behind 
 
REPEAT Chorus 
B5           G5                   A5                 D5       B5   G5 
    But the sun sank west of the Mendocino county line, 
A5                 D5  B5 G5      A5                D5     
Mendocino county line, oh the Mendocino county line.
