Intro: A Em Bm D6 Dm Verse 1: A You could be an angel, babe Em And I wouldn't know it, I wouldn't give a damn, no way Bm Life has been passin' by, passin' me up Dm And I'm holdin' on for what it's worth A 'Cause all I got is me and my faith (my faith) Em That I fall hard, fought to keep down Bm And it's takin' me far from grounded Dm But it means somethin' that you're proud
Pre-Chorus: A 'Cause I fight to stay way too many days Gmaj7 And I drag my feet through too many waves D Bigger than I can swim Fmaj7 Dm Then I start again Chorus: A Let's leave California Em Maybe I need to cross the border Bm Away from my demons and disorders Dm Gmaj7 Nothin' can catch us if we're runnin' forward A Em And maybe everyone here would call me crazy Bm And then you'd tell 'em it's the borderline Dm G No one can catch me if I'm runnin' forward Verse 2: A Em And my exes wanna see me in a padded room Bm But I think I need nature and a Valium Dm You saw passed my outbursts and my attitude G A So I ain't mad at you, I still ain't mad at you Em7 And if they lock me up, would you come visit? Bm7 And if they make me stay, would you consider stayin'? Dm And waitin' outside, have you made up your mind? G7 G I'm medicated this time Pre-Chorus: A 'Cause I fight to stay way too many days G And I drag my feet through too many waves Em D Dmaj7 Bigger than I can swim Fmaj7 F Dm Then I start again Chorus: A Let's leave California Em7 Maybe I need to cross the border Bm7 Away from my demons and disorders Dm G Nothin' can catch us if we're runnin' forward A Em7 And maybe everyone here would call me crazy Bm7 And then you'd tell 'em it's the borderline Outro: A#maj7 A#
