West Coast (video)

I've been dreaming about the West Coast,

F

found some places that I don't know.

Dm E

Give me the sun for just a year, I'll kiss the sky and disappear.

Am

1. I've been starin' up at the grayest skies,

F

tryna find myself some luck but it's running dry,

Dm

like the weather makes the worst in my cloudy mind,

E

I could really use a dose and some paradise.

Am

2. Sometimes you gotta run from my broken heart,

F

before I turn into a ghost, need a brand new start.

Dm

Got myself headed to the coast and it ain't that far,

E

and they got some L.A. and some shining stars.

A

I've been dreaming about the West Coast,

F

found some places that I don't know.

Dm E

I see your signs for California “Change the shade for something warmer.”

A

I've been dreaming about the West Coast,

F

where the people take you real slow,

C E

I need the sun for just a year, I'll kiss the sky and disappear.

Am

3. Ain't felt a drop now for forty days,

F

but still, they're washin' cars and they don't show any age.

Dm

Ain't nothing that you'd wanna cost you more than time,

E

if you're tryna find yourself, better get in line.

Am

I counted up my money and spendin' to get it right

F

got the future in my pocket, I'm spendin' it all a night,

C E

like a prophet with the vision, I finally see the light. And you know…

A

I've been dreaming about the West Coast,

F

found some places that I don't know.

Dm E

I see your signs for California “Change the shade for something warmer.”

A

I've been dreaming about the West Coast,

F

where the people take you real slow,

C E

I need the sun for just a year, I'll kiss the sky and disappear.

A F

+ The West Coast (Ah-ah) follow the star in the skies (Ah-ah)

Dm E

I wanna do this right (take me) where the sun shines !

A

I've been dreaming about the West Coast,

F

Time to find myself a new cloth,

C E

I need the sun for just a year, I'll kiss the sky and disappear. - - -
