[Verse 1]
F Am G
 x2
Oh
F                Am                 G
  You were crying, when I told you that
F              Am                     G
  I was leaving and might never come back
    F            Am              G
Hmm, I was dreaming of a warmer place
F                  Am        G
  And if I made it, it'd be okay
[Chorus]
            F                C
The sun is out, the sky is bright
        G                 Am    G/B
People come and go with smiles
                F           C        G      Am  G/B
Yet, I'm still freezing cold in California
              F               C
And waves of heat from the concrete
              G            Am    G/B
The sand is burning on my feet
                 F          C        G       Am  G/B
Yet, I'm still freezing cold in California
                    F        C       G       Am  G/B
Without you I'm freezing cold in California
[Verse 2]
F                      Am                 G
  All those dreams that, one by one came true
F                  Am                     G
  Felt like nothing, cause I wasn't with you
                       F    G   Am
And tell me what that means
                      F   G   Am
And tell me why am I dying
                         F  G  Am
Thought this was what I needed
                  G     Em7
But that was a mistake
[Chorus]
            F               C
The sun is out, the sky is bright
        G                 Am    G/B
People come and go with smiles
                     F          C        G      Am  G/B
Yet, And I'm still freezing cold in California
              F               C
And waves of heat from the concrete
              G            Am   G/B
The sand is burning on my feet
                 F          C      G         Am  G/B
Yet, I'm still freezing cold in California
                  F          C      G        Am  G/B
Without you I'm freezing cold in California
F  C  G  Am  Em7
[Bridge]
F                 Am                G
  You were crying, when I told you that
F              Am                  G
  I was leaving, now I wanna come back
[Chorus]
            F                C
The sun is out, the sky is bright
        G                Am     G/B
People come and go with smiles
                 F          C       G       Am  G/B
Yet, I'm still freezing cold in California
              F               C
And waves of heat from the concrete
              G            Am    G/B
The sand is burning on my feet
                  F         C        G       Am  G/B
Yet, I'm still freezing cold in California
            F                C
The sun is out, the sky is bright
        G                 Am    G/B
People come and go with smiles
                  F         C        G       Am  G/B
Yet, I'm still freezing cold in California, yeah
              F              C
And waves of heat from the concrete
               G           Am   G/B
The sand is burning on my feet
                 F          C       G       Am  G/B
Yet, I'm still freezing cold in California
                  F          C       G
Without you I'm freezing cold in California
