A               Bm
Lay your burden down
            A                     Bm
There ain't no need to carry it around
          A                          Bm
Ain't no secret of what you're gonna do
          A                          Bm
Go on, believe me, I've been there, too


[Pre-Chorus]
 D         C#m                  Bm
It's just something that you know
 D         C#m                   Bm
I told you get your things and go
 D
If you're sure that you're right


[Chorus]
         A   D  A   Bm
She was born California
            A                   D     A     Bm
Where the golden hills are the color of her hair
     A              D      A      Bm
Brother, don't you say I didn't warn ya
          E
When you end up there, you're gonna end up there


[Verse 2]
  A                   Bm
See, change is gonna come
    A                              Bm
Playin' a new song to a different drum
          A                              Bm
Singin' a new line like you're the only one
                      A                        Bm
Well, this ain't the first time that it's been done


[Pre-Chorus]
  D                  C#m        Bm
It's just something that you know
  D                  C#m        Bm
I told you get your things and go
  D
If you're sure that you're right


[Chorus]
         A   D  A   Bm
She was born California
            A                   D      A     Bm
Where the golden hills are the color of her hair
     A              D       A    Bm
Brother, don't you say I didn't warn ya
          E
When you end up there, you're gonna end up there


[Pre-Chorus]
  D                   C#m       Bm
It's just something that you know
  D                   C#m       Bm
I told you get your things and go
  D
If you're sure that you're right


[Chorus]
         A   D  A  Bm
She was born California
            A                   D      A     Bm
Where the golden hills are the color of her hair
     A              D      A     Bm
Brother, don't you say I didn't warn ya
          E
When you end up there, you're gonna end up there
