(Wo wo wo-wo wo wo wo-wo wo wo)
CDo you know the F6way to San Jose?
CI've been away so Gsus4long, I may go wrGong and lose my way
CDo you know the F6way to San Jose?
CI'm going back to Gsus4find some peace of mGind in San Jose
Em7L.A. is a gAm7reat big freeway
Em7Put a hundred Am7down and buy a Em7car
In a week, maybe two, they'll make you a star
Dm7 G N.C.; organ fills and
Weeks turn into years, how quick they pass bass continue
And all the stars that never were
Are parking cars and pumping gas
You can really breathe in San Jose
They've got a lot of space, there'll be a place where I can stay
I was born and raised in San Jose
I'm going back to find some peace of mind in San Jose
Fame and fortune is a magnet
It can pull you far away from home
With a dream in your heart you're never alone
Dreams turn into dust and blow away
And there you are without a friend
You pack your car and ride away
IC've got lots of fF6riends in San Jose (Cwo wo wo-wo wo wo wo-wo wo wo)
DCo you know the F6way to San Jose? (Cwo wo wo-wo wo wo wo-wo wo wo)
[instrumental; key changes to Db]
