[Intro]
D F#m G Bm (x4)
[Verse]
D F#m
Here comes Jean with the Green
G Bm
And his boots that jangle.
D F#m
He smiles wide and throws his eyes
G Bm
Spinning lies that tangle.
D F#m
Have you ever been outside
G Bm
Of Baltimore county line?
D F#m
Could you tell me 'bout the sky at night
G Bm
Untouched by downtown's light?
D F#m
And everytime you hear the thunder
G Bm
Or you just pray for rain.
D F#m
Know one day the skies will clap
G A
And heaven's gonna have you name
[Chorus]
G D
Sing me songs of California.
G D
Take me dancing pretty momma.
G D
And you know I set out to warn ya
G A
This place is honey but do you wanna?
[Verse]
D
You come soft walking tall
G Bm
With his popular gait.
D F#m
He wonders how then takes his bow
G Bm
Outside midnight raves.
D F#m
Have you ever been outside
G Bm
Heading either north or south?
D F#m
Could you tell me 'bout the other side
G Bm
Of where the mouth lets out?
D F#m
And every time you feel the earth shake
G Bm
Oh you just do the same.
D F#m
Know one day the ground will open up
G A
And the devil's gonna have your name
[Chorus]
G D
Put me on a train to New York.
G D
Take me out to see the water.
G D
Oh and if its my time then so be it.
G D G D
A head full of hate grace and sorrow.
G D
And all I ever wanted was to die with pride.
G A
You know I'm a soldier Adriana.
[Outro]
D F#m
Have you ever been outside
G Bm
Of Baltimore county line?
D F#m
Could you tell me 'bout the sky at night
G Bm
Untouched by downtown's light?
D F#m
And everytime you hear the thunder
G Bm
Or you just pray for rain.
D F#m
Know one day the skies will clap
