G                                 D
Little Mona Lisa laying by my side
G                                    D
Crimson and Clover pullin' overtime
G                                D
I feel too close been losin' touch
   Bm
By givin' in, what am I givin' up
A
Am I losin' way too much

Chorus:
G                 D
Hey - California waiting
G                                   D
Every little thing's gotta be just right
 G                            D
Say - While you're tryin' to save me
 G                             D
Can't I get back my lonely life

I'm goin' so fast and I can't slow down
It's hard to get up when you're spinnin'
'round an' 'round
I'd give you the news but nothing's changed
I'd sing you a song but they blew it away
All wrapped up in this stupid ass game

Chorus

Ah, hey, California Waitin'
Every little thing has gotta be just right
But say, while you're tryna save me
Can I get back my lonely life?
But, hey! California Waitin'
Every little thing has gotta be just right
But say! While you're tryin' to save me
Can I get back my lonely life?

Can I get back my lonely life?
Can I get back, can I get back?
Can I get back my lonely life?
Can I get back, can I get back?
Can I get back my lonely life?
Can I get back, can I get back?
Can I get back my lonely life?
