G# Waste a month, waste a year Waste the time you could've been here Count the debt, count the tears Count the truths and all of my fears D# I didn't want to be cynical Passing place for the soul Cm7 You were never predictable Now I need to let it go Found the song, played it back Heard your voice under the feedback Found a tape that was blank Saw your face fading into black I know love is delusional And I hate when I'm wrong Yours was never conditional And now I need to get it gone Chorus: G# No one ever warns ya Fm7 You'll die in California D# Falling in a dream, you let, let go Cm7 No one ever seems to say, say so G# No one ever tells ya Fm7 There's freedom in the failure D# Dying in a dream feels like home Cm7 No one ever seems to say, say so Close my eyes, close my heart Close the book I never meant to start Say your name in the dark No one said it would be this hard I didn't go to the funeral Heard you cry on the phone Your voice was so beautiful And now I need to let it go Chorus: No one ever warns you You'll die in California Falling in a dream, you let, let go No one ever seems to say, say so No one ever tells you There's freedom in the failure Dying in a dream feels like home No one ever seems to say, say so A# God bless this mess that we made ourselves Cm7 G# Pull me into the screen at the end and A# Gm God bless this mess that we made for ourselves Cm7 Pull me into the screen at the end Pull me into the screen at the end Pull me into the screen at the end To the screen at the end | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA# Cm7 D# Fm7 G# Gm Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
