California

Intro: Cadd9 D

Verse 1:
G             Cadd9       D
Met him on the edge of a goodbye
G                          Cadd9          D
I was standing there with nowhere left to fly
C                D
I was young but ever grim
G                D      Cadd9
A little wiser than my time had seen
Am                                     G
You told me about the places we could hide

G                 Cadd9            D
Wild and kinda crazy most of the time
G                 Cadd9           D
My heart was hangin' on his every line
C                D
I'd memorize his every thought
    G         D            Cadd9
But the walls he had could never be brought down
Am               G
And now he's not around
Am                                  D
I guess I'm just a face left in the crowd

Chorus:
Continúa después del anuncio
Cadd9     D
Oh, California
G           Cadd9    G D
Please come back to me
Cadd9     D
Oh, California
G          Cadd9   Am
You're who I wanna be
Cadd9   D      G
Live inside of me

Verse 2:
G               Cadd9           D
A vivid picture plays inside my head
G                       Cadd9       D
Of things you swore we'd never do again
C                 D
Then he put on that A  face
      G        D      Cadd9
And he left me with a bittersweet taste of life
Am                            D
And that's enough to keep me alive

Chorus:
Cadd9     D
Oh, California
G           Cadd9    G D
Please come back to me
Cadd9     D
Oh, California
G          Cadd9   Am
You're who I wanna be
Cadd9   D      G
Live inside of me

Bridge:
Bm                  D                Cadd9        G
I know you're lyin' somewhere in the arms of destiny
Bm                      D
Your memory, it still lingers here
         Cadd9         D
And I'll never set it free, Ohhh (continues into chorus)--

Chorus:
Cadd9           D
--Ohhhh, (California)
G           Cadd9    G D
Please come back to me
Cadd9     D
Oh, California
G          Cadd9   Am
You're who I wanna be
Cadd9   D      Am
Live inside of me
Cadd9   D      G
Live inside of me
