California Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
Waste a month, waste [G]a year
Waste the time you could've [D]been here
[G]Count the debt, count the tears
Count the truths and all of my [D]fears
I didn't want to be cynical
Passing place for the soul
[Bm]You were never predictable

[Verse 2]
Now I need to let it go
[G]Found the song, played it back
Heard your voice under the feedback
Found a tape that was blank
Saw your face fading in[F#m]to black
[D]I know love is delusional
And I hate when I'm wrong
[Bm]Yours was never conditional
And now I [Em]need to get it gone

[Verse 3]
[G]No one ever warns ya
You'll [Em]die in California
[D]Falling in a dream, you let, let go
[Bm]No one ever seems to say, say so
[G]No one ever tells ya
[D]There's [Em]freedom in the failure
[D]Dying in a dream feels like home
[Bm]No one ever seems to s[D]ay,
say [Em]so[Bm]

[Verse 4]
[G]Close my eyes, close my heart
Close the book I never meant [D]to start
[G]Say your name in the dark
No one said it would be [A]this hard
[D]I didn't go to the funeral
Heard you cry on the phone
[Bm]Your voice was so beautiful
And now I [A]need to let [Em]it go
[F#m]No

[Verse 5]
[G]one ever warns ya
You'll [D]die [Em]in California
[D]Falling in a dream, you let, let go
[Bm]No one ever seems to [Em]say, say so
[F#m]No one[G] ever tells ya
[D]There's [Em]freedom in the failure
[D]Dying in a dream feels like home
[Bm]No one ever seems to say,

[Interlude 2]

[Verse 6]
[A]God bless this mess that
we made ourselves
[Bm]Pull me into the s[G]creen at the end and
[A]God bless this mes[F#m]s that
we made for ourselves
[Bm]Pull me into the screen at the end
