Catalog Number: 47386 Producer: Rick Rubin Release Date: June 08 1999 Transcribed by Wim... questions, comments, critisism, death threats, additions, requests, proposals ----> sirnick@hotmail.com and if you just want to say thank you, then that would be very appreciated :) Hehehe, there's some band on the TV playing naked - that reminds me of four certain rascals? :) I think, well at the moment, this is my favourite track from the album. It's very accoustic and spicy and soothing. I'm not sure I got the riffs perfect, email if you've got a better idea... But this sounds pretty good.

Lyrics: Road trippin' with my two favorite allies Fully loaded we got snacks and supplies It's time to leave this town It's time to steal away Let's go get lost Anywhere in the U.S.A. Let's go get lost Let's go get lost Chorus: Blue you sit so pretty West of the one Sparkles light with yellow icing Just a mirror for the sun Just a mirror for the sun Just a mirror for the sun These Smiling eyes are just a mirror for So much as come before those battles lost and won This life is shining more forever in the sun Now let us check our heads And let us check the surf Staying high and dry's More trouble than it's worth In the sun Just a mirror for the sun Just a mirror for the sun Just a mirror for the sun These Smiling eyes are just a mirror for In Big Sur we take some time to linger on We three hunky dory's got our snakefinger on Now let us drink the stars It's time to steal away Let's go get lost Right here in the U.S.A Chorus These smiling eyes are just a mirror for These smiling eyes are just a mirror for Your smiling eyes are just a mirror for --- This note is appended to my unfinished tabs. The last couple of days I have been working on transcribing the chili peppers new album for guitar, and in some cases for bass too (although i've hardly ever picked up a bass) :) I've done some of most of the tracks tonight, but I've got a major due yesterday and I've got test week coming up... it's too much to finish. I have tabbed the intros and maybe verses to most of the songs, to give everyone a start - the idea is to get a network of people tabbing the album so it can be accurate and available for bands in the near future! I don't play bass or drums, it would be great if other people could help out with transcribing instruments, thanks. The other idea of tabbing a little bit is to give all you guitarists a start; and please help with the tabbing if you think you've got better versions/methods/whatever. If you have any corrections, additions (I haven't added song layouts; where choruses go and how many verse riffs to play etc... these layouts are really helpful for bands), or comments to add then don't be lazy and ignore it, email...! Everyone who contributes will get credit, and thanks in advance for your effort. If you want more transription of this particular track, the solo, or whatever, then send me or some other transcriber a _friendly polite_ email with a request of what you're after. :) If we get a lot of requests for a particular song, it will get more priority... but polite requests get the most attention. Sorry 'bout the legal stuff at the top, but it's gotta be there. :) --- Written by Anthony Kiedis, Flea, John Frusciante, Chad Smith (c) 1999 Moebetoblame Music BMI Lyrics reprinted by permission.
