Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Now it's gettin' so I'm mad
[C]when someone says you[G]r name
[Dm]'Cause I've had to say good- bye to friends
who couldn't [Am]stay away
[F]And sometimes it felt so wrong to
never [Em]want to lean on you
You [Dm]may stand tall,
but [G]I've got two [C]feet [G]too[C]

[Verse 2]
Now we [C]talked of you in bars
around [G]a quiet beer
[Dm]Tell their tales of mine- gone stones
where [Am]no one else can hear
And [F]later on outside,
they say they're [Em]get tin' on a plane
To [Dm]fly away, l[G]eavin' you again
[C]

[Verse 3]
Cali[Em]fornia, my friends all [Dm]call you home
And if you [G]take away another,
I'll be that [Am]much more alone
Is it my [F]fault that my kind are
always [Em]drawn toward the sun
Like [Dm]a child to home [G]whenever dark[C]ness

[Interlude 1]
comes
[C][Em][Dm][G][Am]
[F][Em][Dm][G][C]

[Verse 4]
Now in [C]a few more years,
I won't remember what [G]it was to play
The [Dm]music of old friends who need
[Am]to live so far away
But can I [F]once taste more than waters,
then for[Em]sake them for the South
[Dm]To feel California's [G]ashes [C]in my mouth

[Verse 5]
Cali[Em]fornia, my friends all [Dm]call you home
And if you [G]take away another,
I'll be [Am]that much more alone
Is it [F]my fault that my kind are
always [Em]drawn toward the sun
Like [Dm]a child to home [G]whenever
dark[C]ness comes

[Verse 6]
[Em]California, my friends all c[Dm]all you home
And if [G]you take away another,
I'll be [Am]that much more alone
Is it [F]my fault that my kind are
always [Em]drawn toward the sun
Like [Dm]a child to home [G]whenever
dark[F]ness comes
Like [Dm]a child to home [G]whenever
[F]darkness [Em]comes[Dm]
