Capo 1st fret
Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
Verse 1
I'm miserable without you
so much so I have too
Let go of my hometown
Brooklyn I was so proud
I'm leaving New York for California
I'm better off without you
You're always in a bad mood
Dark clouds over sunshine
Rain out all the good times
stay out of my life in California
Chorus
Stay where you are, we're better apart in California
Stay where you are, we're better apart in California
I'm leaving New York for California
I'm leaving New York for California
Verse 2
Your blue eyes and the sunshine
Red wine under moonlight
Classic like a painting
Sculpture of an angel
Cute like a cartoon batting her lashes
Push me off the bed while you sleep
Or squeeze me til I can't breathe
All elbows and knees
I got bruises from your bad dreams
You're always pissed off
I can't make you happy
Chorus
Stay where you are, we're better apart in California
Stay where you are, we're better apart in California
I'm leaving New York for California
(hold this until bridge)
I'm leaving New York for California
Bridge
Can you change?
Can you change?
Can you prove me wrong?
I can change
I can change
I can prove you wrong
ENDING
I'm miserable without you
so much so I have too
Let go of my hometown
Brooklyn I was so proud
I'm leaving New York for California
I'm leaving New York for California
I'm leaving New York for California
End with a G CHORD.
