C Dm G C

  C
I threw a stone so a million eyes
      Dm
Would look to the atlantic
      G                        C
While I took my holiday out of town
    C
Now i'll admit this taking time
    Dm
Was not cause I had earned it
      G                            C
I was never one to hold the hours down
        C
But the tree beside that field inside
    Dm
The park next to the highway
    G                                C
One day was just too dark a shade of old
   C
So as I walk the midnight flats
     Dm
Near bethlaham that's raining
       G                             C
And my mind is written on the sign I hold

[Chorus]
F   G        C  F         G
I'm going to Saaaan Bernardino
       C
Take a ride
       F
Take a ride
       G
Take a ride
             C  F         G
I'm going to Saaaan Bernardino
       C
Take a ride
       F
Take a ride
       G
Take a ride

C Dm G C

         C
This New England rain is drunk
            Dm
It's mighty finger's pointing at me
        G                           C
While I drive another foot into the ground
          C
I've been all along the mystic south
    Dm
But nothing could impress me
         G                          C
Like the thought of that California town
          C
Yeah they say there's sugar there
                   Dm
That beats on this weary eyed sparkling
         G                     C
Down the face of my Cincinatti rose
         C
And they said at night i've heard it told
     Dm
They say it's like it's lightning
   G                             C
It glows just enough to lead you home

[Chorus]
F   G        C  F         G
I'm going to Saaaan Bernardino
       C
Take a ride
       F
Take a ride
       G
Take a ride
             C  F         G
I'm going to Saaaan Bernardino
       C
Take a ride
       F
Take a ride
       G
Take a ride
