A Em D (1x)

[Verse]
A      Em      D     A
I stay hig.....h all the time
Em       D        A
Jus......t to get by
  Em       D          A
I clim.....b into the sky
       Em      D       A    
And my eye.....s, they cry
A 
California nights
        Em      D             A
Make me feel so happy I could die
      Em      D
But I tr......y
      A
Still I

[Verse]
  G
I never wanna get so high
That I can't come back down to real life
And look you in the eyes and say
            A
Baby, you're mine
Fading back and forth 
  Em      D            A
I fl......y through my mind
  Em     D                 A
I tak....e the weight I've known
         Em    D        A
But have I...... really grown?

[Chorus]
A 
California nights
        Em      D             A
Make me feel so happy I could die
      Em      D
But I tr......y
      A
Still I

[Chorus]
        G
I never wanna get so high
That I can't come back down to real life
And look you in the eyes and say
            A
Baby, you're mine

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
        G
I never wanna get so high

And look you in the eyes and say
