Bm A
Everybody here is living life
G F#m
in fear of falling out of line
Bm D
Tearing lives apart breaking lots
G F#m
of hearts just to pass the time

And the eyes get red

in the back of your head

This place will make you blind
Bm D
Put it all behind me
G D/F# D
and I'll be just fine
Chorus 3:
D G
Another sunny day beneath
this cloudless sky

Sometimes I wish that

it would rain here

And wash away the West Coast
G
dreaming from my eyes
A/C#
There's nothing real
G
for them to see here

Another sunny night

in California

chance before you
