Standard (EADGBE)
I've done my best to forget you, dumped your perfume down my drain
My telephone is always in use, day and night
You've got a weird conception of love if you thought that was love
Like a rocket, I am ready to fly
Back lit so you can't see their faces, your replacement is everywhere
Brown bodies just a little too wide prance around
O.K., let's say my judgement was poor give me one more chance
And like a rocket, I will fly to your side
Chorus
You got a hold of my heart (3x)
California makes it hard to be lonely, youre supposed to feel happy this year
So the days show traces of tears in your eyes
I've done my very best to forget you and in fact, I failed
And like a rocket, I will fly to your side
Chorus
The grass is greener on the other side, that's what some old guy said
But I know that old guy must have lied or he was out of his head
