          D#        A#             Cm
When you wake up, cobwebs on your eyelids
  A#           G#    A#
Stuck in rigor mortis
      D#
Woah-woah (Wake up)

Just get going 'til you hit the ocean
And you turn Californian
Woah-woah

           Gm  Cm          Gm  Cm
You don't have to have the answers
           G#
Don't you worry
Don't you worry

Chorus:
              G#     A#               Cm         G
It's gonna be alright, if you're on a sinking ship
       G#          A#                  G#     A#
The California kids, will throw you a lifeline
                 G#       A#                    Cm          G
And if you're up all night, thinking 'bout something you did
        G#          A#                  G#
The California kids, will show you the sunshine

In your bare feet in mid-January
Swimming in the mystery
Woah-woah
Second-guessing almost everything
Don't you worry
Don't you worry

Chorus

All your old friends chilling back in Boston
You never forgot them
Woah-woah

Chorus

The California kids will show you the starlight
