That i couldn't break through
Dm D2
'cause i'm gonna miss you, i'm gonna miss you
Dm D2
I'm gonna miss you, i'm gonna miss you
Don't you know that i did the things i could
I rubbed your back when you were sleeping
But all along baby it was understood
That you were leaving, absolutely
Since the very first day we met
California, i hope that it wakes you
From all of the darkness
That i couldn't break through
'cause i'm gonna miss you, i'm gonna miss you
I'm gonna miss you, i'm gonna miss you
D Bm
Like i miss the ocean
A G
When i go to sleep

California, i hope that it wakes you
From all of the darkness
That i couldn't break through
