G C Em C
[Verse 1]
G C
Who's the girl inside of the blue-screen light?
Em
The sun is just pouring out
C
And everything's out of sight
G C
Turn around, the room is just black and white
Em
She's whispering: Nah nah na-na-na nah, nah nah
C
Nah nah na-na-na nah
[Chorus]
G
And it's not true
C
And it's not fair
Em
And it's not you
C G
And it's not California here
[Verse 2]
G C
Later on you're breaking the boxes down
Em
There's nobody out tonight
C
Nobody's hanging round
G C
So you take the drive that used to be almost right
Em
And now it's just empty lots around you
C
All these empty lots around you
[Chorus]
G
And they don't know
C
What you hold dear
Em
And they can't see
C G
That it's not California here
[Verse 3]
G C
Come a time when I may just walk away
Em
The sun is just barely on
C
The sky is completely gray
G C
But you're the one I want to be with today
Em
Let them say: Nah nah na-na-na nah, nah nah
C
Nah nah na-na-na nah
[Chorus]
G
And I'm not strong
C
And you're not rich
Em
And we're not lost
C
Where we don't live
G
And it's not true
C
And it's not fair
Em
And they're not us
C G
And it's not California here
