How to add Google Chrome to path?

I want to add Google Chrome to path under the google-chrome name so that I can execute the following command: google-chrome --version. First I tried with:

sudo ln -s /Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome /usr/local/bin/google-chrome

But I kept receiving pop-ups with an error message (Google Chrome quit unexpectedly.). So I tried with --headless, i.e. made a script called /usr/local/bin/google-chrome and put the following there:

#!/bin/bash
/Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome "$@" --headless

But I'm getting: ContextResult::kTransientFailure: Failed to send GpuControl.CreateCommandBuffer. Made a bit of googling, tried a solution with --disable-gpu, but it still does not work. Note that /Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome --version returns the correct version.
