Am
Am    Fmaj7    x2
 
[Verse 1]
         Am
When the lights go down in the California town
Fmaj7                    Am
People are in for the evening.
  Am
I jump into my car and I throw in my guitar,
   Fmaj7                        Am
My heart beats time with my breathing.
 
[Chorus]
Fmaj7                Em
Driving over Kanan, singing to my soul,
        Fmaj7                               Am
There's people out there turning music into gold.

[Verse 2]
        Am
Now, my buddy Jim Bass, he's a-working, pumping gas,
       Fmaj7                  Am
And he makes two fifty for an hour.
         Am
He's got rhythm in his hands as he's tapping on the cans,
Fmaj7                        Am
Sings rock and roll in the shower.
 
[Chorus]

There's people out there turning music into gold.

Singing right at me, I can hear the melody,
    Fmaj7                    Am
The story is there for the taking.

Fmaj7                Em
Driving over Kanan, singing to my soul,

There's people out there turning music into gold.

Working on the radio,
Am                                             Fmaj7
People out there turning music into gold, into gold, 
Slipping down the backroad,
Am                                             Fmaj7
People out there turning music into gold, into gold,
Am                                             Fmaj7
People out there turning music into gold, into gold
