Okay where I put the chords for the bridge part might be a bit off but you should
be able to get them.
Also here's what a C#add9 chord looks like.
e-4
[B-4]
[G-6]
[D-6]
[A-4]
[E-4]
Intro: B
[B]Sunlight hits a sign and I'm in [Abm]Union Station
My [F#]arms are heavy in their [B]sleeves
[B]Everyone here thinks that I've been [Abm]on vacation
But [F#]I don't ever seem to [B]leave[F#]
And [E]all that I can tell you is my l[B]ove's unfocused
And [Abm]drifting over[F#]seas
[E]Head's all full of context better l[B]eft unspoken
As [Abm]scenes from old Pomona d[F#]reams come washing over [B]me
[B]No one wants to tell you just how l[Abm]ong they've been here
The [F#]stars are crawling out their f[B]rames
The [B]canvas on the ankle straps is [Abm]wearing thin, dear
And [F#]I can't help but feel the [B]same[F#]
When [E]everything in t[F#]own's been taken [Abm]down for [C#add9]renovations
The [E]hardest part is [F#]finding your way [Abm]home
[E]Freeway cuts the [F#]sky and I'm [Abm]inside it's suppu[C#add9]rations
But [E]Southern California's got this [Ab]way of creeping up on you
And [E]all that I can tell you is my [B]love's unfocused
And [Abm]drifting over[F#]seas
[E]Head's all full of context better [B]left unspoken
As [Abm]scenes from old Pomona [F#]dreams come washing over [B]me
[B]One last look around and then I'm [Abm]always leaving
The [F#]stars are falling out of [B]tune
[B]Fingers bear the stains of shipping [Abm]and receiving
These [F#]songs that carry me to [B]you[F#]
But [E]this is not some [F#]list of all the [Abm]ways I should have [C#add9]loved you
[E]Hold you in my [F#]arms and let you [Abm]down
[E]Turn my crooked [F#]smile up to the [Abm]sky and I'm thinking [C#add9]of you
But [E]Southern California's got me d[F#]riving home in rental cars
And [E]Southern California's got this [F#]way of tearing me and you a[Abm]part[Bbm] [B]
[C#]And you [Abm]know it's tr[Bbm]ue, C[B]alifornia's [C#]tearing us a[Abm]part[Bbm] [B] [C#]
And I [Abm]want it [Bbm]to[B] [C#]
But [E]all that I can tell you is my [B]love's unfocused
And [Abm]drifting [F#]overseas
[E]Head's all full of context better [B]left unspoken
As [Abm]scenes from old Pomona [F#]dreams come washing over [B]me
