Intro: Bm--A-D-G--D--G, Bm--A-D-G--G-D/F#-D
Verse 1:
[D] Don't know
[A/C#] What I was looking for
when [G]I went home
I found me alone
[D] Sometimes
[A/C#] I need someone to
say "You'll [G]be alright!"
"What's on your mind?"
Refrain 1:
[A] But the water's shallow [G]here
And I am full of [A]fear
And empty-handed
[G]after two long years
Chorus 1:
[D] Another sunny day
in [G]California
[D] I'm sure back home
they'd love to [G]see it
[A] But they don't know that
what you [C]love is ripped away
[A/C#] Before you get a
chance to [G]feel it
Interlude: Bm--A-D-G--G-D/F#-D
Verse 2:
[D] Back home
[A/C#] I always thought I
wanted [G]so much more
Now I'm not too sure
[D] Cause sometimes
[A/C#] I miss knowing someone's
[G]there for me
And feeling free
Refrain 2:
[A] Free to stand be[G]side
The ocean in moon[D/F#]light
And light myself
a s[G]moke beneath
The dark Atlantic sky
Chorus 2:
[D] Another sunny day
in [G]California
[D] I'm sure back home
they'd love to [G]see it
[A] But they don't know that
what you [C]love is ripped away
[A/C#] Before you get a
chance[G] before you
get a chance to [D]feel it[D]
Bridge:
[Bm] Everybody [A]here is living life
in [G]fear of falling out of [F#m]line
[Bm] Tearing lives a[D]part breaking lots
of [G]hearts just to pass the [F#m]time
[Bm] And the eyes get [D]red
in the back of your [G]head
This place will make [F#m]you blind
[Bm] Put it all be[D]hind me
and I'll [G]be [D/F#]just [D]fine
Chorus 3:
[D] Another sunny day be[G]neath
this cloudless sky
[D] Sometimes I wish that
it would [G]rain here
[A] And wash away the West Coast
[G]dreaming from my eyes
[A/C#] There's nothing real
for them to [G]see here
Chorus 4:
[D] Another sunny night
in [G]California
[D] I'm sure back home
they'd love to [G]see it
[A] But they don't know that
what you [C]love is ripped away
[A/C#] Before you get a
chance[G] before you
get a chance to [D]feel it[D]
