[Verse 1]
C G B7 Em
C G
Just out of reach is the gold you're rushing for
B7 Em
With bags under your eyes
C G
I've been chasing a rainbow, wound up at your door
B7 Em
Wanna see the other side
[Pre-Chorus]
Am C
It's not quite like I imagined, like I did before
G
When you're pouring all your heart out
D
But you're lying on the floor
Am7
All the cigarettes and hotels
C
Could be what you're looking for
G
But it's not what you expected
D N.C.
And you're left wanting more
[Chorus]
C G
Don't mind what anybody told ya
B7 Em
It still gets cold in California
C G
See, everybody thinks they know ya
B7 Em
They're only seeing what they wanna
C Am Em
Oh, don't mind what anybody told ya
A C G
It still gets cold in California
[Verse 2]
C
We can dance in the streets
G
With the sun upon our skin
B7 Em
And wake up feeling burned
C
Under stars, we can freeze
G
'Cause we've gotten used to heat
Bm7 Em
Where seasons never turn
[Pre-Chorus]
Am C
It's not quite like I imagined, like I did before
G
When you're pouring all your heart out
D
But you're lying on the floor
Am7
All the cigarettes and hotels
C
Could be what you're looking for
G
But it's not what you expected
D N.C.
And you're left wanting more
[Chorus]
C G
Don't mind what anybody told ya
B7 Em
It still gets cold in California
C G
See, everybody thinks they know ya
B7 Em
They're only seeing what they wanna
C Am Em
Oh, don't mind what anybody told ya
A C G
It still gets cold in California
[Bridge]
C D
Talk about the pretty parts, the ones you see on film
Em G
Happiness and skinny legs and living on a hill
C D
Don't talk about the ugly parts, the loneliness you feel
Em D C#m
You probably always will
[Chorus]
C G A
'Cause it gets dark in California
B Em D
I know it well, better than most, yeah
C G
Don't mind what anybody told ya
B7 Em
It still gets cold in California
C G
See, everybody thinks they know ya
B Em
They're only seeing what they wanna
C Am Em
Oh, don't mind what anybody told ya
A C G A C G
It still gets cold in California
A Am A
