[Verse 1]
D
You could say these days
G D A
Are cold and sharp like razor blades
Bm G
They twist and burn and then they fade
A D
Like a kiss from long ago
D
I wouldn't tell just anyone
G D A
Some days, I feel like a loaded gun
Bm G
Is our love just a hit and run?
A D
Only time can really know
[Chorus]
G F#m Em
Just like the California sun
A D
I think I'm goin' down
G D
Come and meet me in the shadows
Em A
Of this drunk and broken town
G A Bm
Don't curse your mind with yesterday
A D G
Or the love we could have found

Just waltz across the moment

To that sweet western sound

It seems like a fever dream

Everyone matchin' in their perfect themes

Somethin' they saw on their TV screen
A D
Here I am out on my own
D
My daddy always seemed to know
G D A
Who hung the moon and where the river flowed
Bm G
You know I can hear him when the night wind blows
A D
Daddy, which way do I go?
[Chorus]

'Cause just like the California sun

I think I'm goin' down

How will you know

Heaven for real?

Just like the California sun

I think I'm goin' down
