Version 1
            All I can find for this song is tabs. I'm a beginner so not only can I not read
them, I can't play them how they are, so I decided to create a simplified versions
for people like me, who aren't quite advanced enough. It's not perfect but I think
it's pretty close. :D

I'm headed out west with my headphones on
Am                                             G
Boarded a flight with a song in the back of my soul
           G
And no one knows
[Chorus]
  D
I just found out her ghost left town
    C                                           G
The Queen of California is stepping down, down
[Verse]
      G
Hello beauty, hello strange
      G
Hello wonder, what's your name?

Looking for the sun that Neil Young hung
Am                       G
After the gold rush of 1971

I just found out her ghost left town
    C                                         G
The Queen of California is stepping down, down

If you see her say, "Hello"

Just don't tell me, "I told you so"

Joni wrote Blue in her house by the sea
  Am                                             G
I gotta believe there’s another color waiting on me
          G
To set me free
[Chorus]
