I have a song I want to use for a ringtone, but the Google Music app doesn't let me set it. I've checked on my sdcard/internal storage for a music/google/gmusic etc folder but can't find anything.
Where is the music file stored on my phone?

Where is the music file stored on my phone?
The Google Music Apps cache is at
/<external_SD>/Android/data/com.google.android.music/cache/music
which is usually
/sdcard/Android/data/com.google.android.music/cache/music
/cache
and /files
subfolders appear "EMPTY", even with "Show hidden files" enabled. (And I have quite a few songs available offline/"on device" within Google Play Music.)

It is actually in /data/data/com.google.android.music/files/music
.
You might need root to access this. The songs are titled just by numbers so it might be a pain to find the right ones. This is from a Sprint Samsung Galaxy S4 rooted stock ROM NAE Android 4.4.2.
I use Bluetooth File Transfer and have found the files in
/storage/extSdCard/Android/data/com.google.android.music/files/music
I'm running Android 4.4.2 on a Galaxy S5 (not rooted) and the Play Music app is v5.7.1788Q.1634597
