Verse 1:
Am                             F
   I like to see everything in neon
                  E7       Am
Drink  lime green, stay up 'til dawn
                       F         E7
Maybe  the way that I'm living is killing me


Am                                   F
   I like to light up the stage with a song
           E7             Am
Do xxxx to keep me turned on
                             F                E7
But  one day, I woke up like “maybe  I'll do it differently” so

Pre-chorus 1:
  Am
I moved to California but it's just a state of mind
             F                               E7
It  turns out everywhere you go, you take yourself‚ that's not a lie
Am
Wish that you would hold me or just say that you were mine
     F          G     (C)
It's killing me slowly-y

Chorus 1:
C                         G                          Dm
  Dream a little dream of me, make  me into something sweet
                   F                     G
Turn the radio on‚ dancin' to a pop song
               Am                  E7
xxxx it I love you, xxxx it I love you
               Am            F   G
xxxx it I love you, I really do

Verse 2:
Am                                 F
   I used to shoot up my veins in neon
                E7               Am
And xxxx's even brighter, you're gone
                       F             E7
So many things I would say to you, I want you

Pre-chorus 2:
    Am
You moved to California but it's just a state of mind
             F                                                 E7
And you know everyone adores you, you can't feel it and you're tired
      Am
Baby‚ wish that you would hold me or just say that you were mine
         F          G
But it's killing me slowly

Chorus 2:
C                         G                            Dm
  Dream a little dream of me, turn this into something sweet
                   F                     G
Turn the radio on‚ dancing to a pop song
               Am                  E7
xxxx it I love you, xxxx it I love you
               Am            F   G
xxxx it I love you, I really do

Bridge:
   Am
It turns out California's more than just a state of mind
          F                                                   G
I met you on the boulevard, wind through my hair, you blew my mind
         Am
And if I wasn't so xxxxxx up, I think I'd xxxx you all the time
     F          G
It's killing me slowly

Pre-chorus 3:
                 Am
               I moved to California but it's just a state of mind
(xxxx it, I love you)
                 F                                                  E7
    It turns out everywhere you go, you take yourself, that's not a lie
(xxxx it, I love you)
                 Am
               I wish that you would hold me or just say that you were mine
(xxxx it, I love you)

     It's killing me slowly
(I really do)
