[Intro] I've been dreaming A About the West Coast (I've been dreaming) Found some places that F I don't know (I've been dreaming about) Dm Give me the sun for just a year E I'll kiss the sky and disappear [Verse] I've been starin' Am Up at the grayest skies F Tryna find myself some luck But it's running dry Like the weather makes the Dm Worst in my cloudy mind E I could really use a dose And some paradise Am Sometimes you gotta run From my broken heart F Before I turn into a ghost, Nneed 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 [Chorus] I've been dreaming A About the West Coast (I've been dreaming) Found some places that F I don't know (I've been dreaming about) Dm I see your signs for California E Change the shade for something warmer I've been dreaming Am About the West Coast (I've been dreaming) F Where the people take you real slow (I've been dreaming about) C I need the sun for just a year E I'll kiss the sky and disappear [Verse] Am And failed to drop now for forty days F But still, they're washin' cars And controllin the 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 Like a prophet with the vision, I finally see the light E And you know [Chorus] I've been dreaming A About the West Coast (I've been dreaming) F Found some places that I don't know (I've been dreaming about) Dm I see your signs for California E Change the shade for something warmer I've been dreaming Am About the West Coast (I've been dreaming) F Where the people take you real slow (I've been dreaming about) C I need the sun for just a year E I'll kiss the sky and disappear [Bridge] A The West Coast (Ah-ah) F Follow the star in the skies (Ah-ah) Dm I wanna do this right E (Take me) Where the sun shines [Chorus] I've been dreaming Am About the West Coast F Time to find myself a new cloth C I need the sun for just a year E I'll kiss the sky and disappear I've been dreaming A about the West Coast (I've been dreaming) Found some places that F I don't know (I've been dreaming about) Dm I see your signs for California E Change the shade for something warmer I've been dreaming Am About the West Coast (I've been dreaming) F Where the people take you real slow (I've been dreaming about) C I need the sun for just a year E I'll kiss the sky and disappear
