Tone [A]
Verse 1:
[D]Just out of reach is the [A]gold you're rushing for
With [Db7]bags under your [Gbm]eyes
[D]I've been chasing a rainbow, [A]wound up at your door
Wanna [Db7]see the other [Gbm]side
Pre-Chorus:
It's not [Bm]quite like I imagined, [D]like I did before
When you're [A]pouring all your heart out
But you're [E]lying on the floor
All the [Bm7]cigarettes and hotels
Could be [D]what you're looking for
But it's [A]not what you expected
And [E]you're left wanting more
Chorus:
[D]Don't mind what anybody [A]told ya
[Db7]It still gets cold in Calif[Gbm]California
[D]See, everybody thinks they [A]know ya
[Db7]They're only seeing what they [Gbm]wanna
[D]Oh, [Bm]don't mind what anybody [Gbm]told ya
[B]It still gets [D]cold in Calif[A]California
Verse 2:
[D]We can dance in the streets
With the [A]sun upon our skin
And [Db7]wake up feeling [Gbm]burned
Under [D]stars, we can freeze
'Cause we've [A]gotten used to heat
Where [Dbm7]seasons never t[Gbm]turn
Pre-Chorus:
It's not [Bm]quite like I imagined, [D]like I did before
When you're [A]pouring all your heart out
But you're [E]lying on the floor
All the [Bm7]cigarettes and hotels
Could be [D]what you're looking for
But it's [A]not what you expected
And [E]you're left wanting more
Chorus:
[D]Don't mind what anybody [A]told ya
[Db7]It still gets cold in Calif[Gbm]California
[D]See, everybody thinks they [A]know ya
[Db7]They're only seeing what they [Gbm]wanna

Bridge:
[D]Talk about the pretty parts, the [E]ones you see on film
[Gbm]Happiness and skinny legs and [A]living on a hill
[D]Don't talk about the
ugly parts, [E]the loneliness you feel
[Gbm]You probably [E]always [Ebm]will
Chorus:
[D]'Cause it gets dark in Cali[A]California [B]
[Db]I know it well, better than [Gbm]most, yeah [E]
[D]Don't mind what anybody told [A]ya
[Db7]It still gets cold in Cali[Gbm]California
