Bb7      Eb6 
Along the trail you'll find me lopin' 
          Ab6             Eb6 
Where the spaces are wide open, 
Ebdim  Eb          C6      F     Bb7 
In the land of the old A.E.C. (yea-hah!) 
          Eb 
Where the scenery's attractive, 
Eb7     Ab           F7 
And the air is radio-active, 
        Bb7                        Eb  Edim  Bb7 
Oh, the wild west is where I wanna be. 

        Eb6 
Mid the sagebrush and the cactus, 
     Ab6              Eb 
I'll watch the fellas practice 
Ebdim    Eb                C7           F7   Bb7 
Droppin' bombs through the clean desert breeze. 
          Eb  
I'll have on my sombrero, 
Eb7    Ab                 F7 
And of course I'll wear a pair o' 
      Bb7              Eb6  Ab  Abm6  Eb 
Levis over my lead B.V.D.'s. 

Eb7    Ab 
I will leave the city's rush, 
Bb7       Eb    Bbm6    C7 
Leave the fancy and the plush, 
          Fm7      Fm7/5-     Bb7 
Leave the snow and leave the slush 
        Eb 
And the crowds. 
Eb7    Ab 
I will seek the desert's hush, 
bB7       Eb   Bbm6  C7 
Where the scenery is lush, 
      F7 
How I long to see the mush- 
     Bb7 
Room clouds. 

         Eb6 
'mid the yuccas and the thistles 
     Ab6              Eb 
I'll watch the guided missiles, 
Ebdim     Eb      C7         F7      Bb7 
While the old F.B.I. watches me. (yea-hah!) 
          Eb     
Yes, I'll soon make my appearance 
Eb7      Ab           F7 
(soon as I can get my clearance), 
           Bb7                        Eb6   A B   Abm6   Eb 
'cause the wild west is where I wanna be.
