Settling down with warm glow woodstove and kerosene
Peace you're looking for Peace you'll find
In the tangled mad cliffsides and crashing dark
of Big Sur
of Big Sur
Rapturous ring of silence Pacific fury
Flashing on the rocks the sea shroud towers
The innocence of health and stillness in the wilds
of Big Sur
of Big Sur
This whole surface of the world as we know it now
Will be covered with the silt of a billion years in time
Verse chords for interlude
I see as much as doors will allow
Im a long way from the beat generation
Here comes the nightly moth to his nightly death
in Big Sur
in Big Sur
The best thing to do is not to be false
The rocks of the valley have left no howl of complaint
Im just a sick clown and so is everybody else
in Big Sur
in Big Sur
Verse Chords again, end on D
