Chorus:
G Dmaj7
Ventura Highway in the sunshine
G Dmaj
Where the days are longer, the nights are stronger than moonshine
G Dmaj7 F#m
You're gonna go, I kno-----w
Em F#m
Cause the free wind is blowin' through your hair
Em F#m
And the day surrounds your daylight there
Em F#m
Season's crying, no despair
Em F#m G
Alligator, lizards in the air, in the air
Dmaj7
Do do do do do do do do
G
Do do do do do do do do
