Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Hotels and cigarettes

And empty bars where I just sit

 And contemplate the things that I can't know

And all I ask of you are honest words

Simple truths

A place to lay my head when I get lost

Nothing here is right

Guess I'll shut my eyes

Come to California 'cause I've been lonely for you

We can stay up all night just to watch the sunrise

 Come to California

 Nothing's right without you and even in the daylight

 Well I can't see the sky

I watch the waves disappear beneath the boardwalk

Then I blink my eyes

Stare farther down the beach

I'll get drunk this time on moons far and wide

In my defense I'd like to say at least it's always sweet

Nothing here is Right

Guess I'll shut my eyes

Come to California 'cause I've been lonely for you

We can stay up all night just to watch the sunrise

 Come to California

 Nothing's right without you and even in the daylight

 Well I can't see the sky

Bridge

And I don't know if I believe I'm everything I should be

If I'd never been for you

Love I am drowning in this change

It's washing everything I know and am confident with

Come to California 'cause I've been lonely for you

We can stay up all night just to watch the sunrise

 Come to California

 Nothing's right without you and even in the daylight

 Well I can't see the sky

Come to California 'cause I've been lonely for you

(I can't see the sky)

We can stay up all night just to watch the sunrise

(Lord I can't see the sky)

Come to California

Nothing's right without you and even in the daylight

(I can't see it)

(I can't see it)

Well I can't see the sky

(I can't see it)
