Capo 1
[Verse 1]
CaroClina,
I've been Flooking for the Ctime to tell you Gnothing feels the Amsame since I
moved Fback from where you Care.
Words don't Cline up.
Every Ftime I try to Clay them down, the Ggodforsaken Ampage rips out, and
Ftears up into Cparts.
I'm Ftearing Ginto Cparts.
[Verse 2]
'So halleClujah' reads the Fchurch sign on the Csidewalk now I Gpass along
the Amfive blocks to the Famber colored Cdoor.
What's it Cto you if I Fstill believe in Cmagic;
See the Gbeauty in our Amtragic and want to Ffeel like there's something
mCore?
[Chorus 1]
Since I Gtold you that I Amlove you and you Fsaid that isn't Ctrue,
Because you Gtreat love like a Amfirework just to Fkeep the sky a Cmuse.
You might Gfind that given Amtime, The fire Fburns right down the Cfuze,
and you still Gstand too close.
[Verse 3]
CCalifornia,
You can leave the Fmoney on the Ctable and the Gsilver and the Amhalos of
the Fangels in her Csky.
But I adore Cya.
so I'm Fgetting on this Ctrain home and I'm Gletting all these Amstars go,
I'm Fsleeping through the Cnight.
[Chorus 2]
Since I Gtold you that I Amlove you and you Fsaid it might be Ctrue,
But you Gtreat love like a Amfirework just to Fkeep the sky aCmused.
You might Gfind that over Amtime, and once the fire Fburns the Cfuze,
you still Gstand too close.
[Interlude]
F Am

[Chorus 3]
If I Gsaid again I Amlove you, Would you Fsay you know it's Ctrue?
We can Gtreat love like a Amfirework just to Fkeep the sky aCmused.
And we might Gfind that given Amtime, the fire Fburns right down the Cfuze,
But I'm still Gstanding close.

Capo 1

[Verse 1]

Carolina,

F C G Am

I've been looking for the time to tell you nothing feels the same since I

F C

moved back from where you are.

Words don't line up.

F C G Am

Every time I try to lay them down, the godforsaken page rips out, and

F C

tears up into parts.

F G C

I'm tearing into parts.

[Verse 2]

C F C G

'So hallelujah' reads the church sign on the sidewalk now I pass along

Am F C

the five blocks to the amber colored door.

C F C

What's it to you if I still believe in magic;

G Am F

See the beauty in our tragic and want to feel like there's something

more?

[Chorus 1]

G Am F C

Since I told you that I love you and you said that isn't true,

G Am F C

Because you treat love like a firework just to keep the sky a muse.

G Am F C

You might find that given time, The fire burns right down the fuze,

and you still stand too close.

[Verse 3]

California,

F C G Am

You can leave the money on the table and the silver and the halos of

F C

the angels in her sky.

But I adore ya.

F C G Am

so I'm getting on this train home and I'm letting all these stars go,

F C

I'm sleeping through the night.

[Chorus 2]

G Am F C

Since I told you that I love you and you said it might be true,

G Am F C

But you treat love like a firework just to keep the sky amused.

G Am F C

You might find that over time, and once the fire burns the fuze,

you still stand too close.

[Interlude]

F Am

F Am G

[Chorus 3]

G Am F C

If I said again I love you, Would you say you know it's true?

G Am F C

We can treat love like a firework just to keep the sky amused.

G Am F C

And we might find that given time, the fire burns right down the fuze,

But I'm still standing close.

[Outro]
