[Verse 1]
N.C. G
I flew to California thinking I'd found home
C
But I was running away from it
G
Thirty-thousand feet and seven-thousand miles
C Am7
I've learned the hard way it doesn't change a thing
 
[Pre-Chorus]
D G
Didn't know that ghosts they follow
D Em7 Bm7 Am7
They live in places inside that's hollow
D
They'll fill you up and say
 
[Chorus]
G D Em7 Bm7
What does it look like from halfway down?
Am7 C D
Would a breath feel easier if it stopped making sounds?
G D Em7 Bm7
Wouldn't it be great to have to never ask why?
Am7 D G
'Cause right now San Francisco seems like the perfect place to die
 
[Verse 2]
G
I walked for hours from Post down to the bay
C
Maybe the sky might clear my mind, right?
G
Among the fleet of lovers and dreamers of ballet
C
I thought I'd find hope, but no
 
[Pre-Chorus]
D G
Didn't know that ghosts they follow
D Em7 Bm7 Am7
They live in every moment borrowed
D
They take the time to say
 
[Chorus]
G D Em7 Bm7
What does it look like from halfway down?
Am7 C D
Would a breath feel easier if it stopped making sounds?
G D Em7 Bm7
Wouldn't it be great to have to never ask why?
Am7 D Am7
Cause right now San Francisco seems like the perfect place to die
 
[Verse 3]
D Am7
I'm on the edge of this
D Am7
I'm on the precipice of knowing what it'd feel like
Em7 D G Am7
Is it as painless and as fast as what they say?
 
[Outro]
G
I flew to California thinking I'd found home
C
But I was running away from it
