Verse 1:
Ebm             B          Ebm
   I've got the California blues
          B             Ebm
When I am down I always lose
                B                   Abm
So don't put me in this restraining room
      Bb
Cause I don't know where to go
Ebm           B
   Now tell me are you happy?
Ebm              B                   Ebm
   With how they like to exploit you too?
          B             Abm
Are you in control now? No
      Bb
cause you don't know where to go


Chorus:
Ebm F#   Abm    Ebm
    Poor little girl 
F#  Abm    Ebm
sad little world
 F#   Abm    Ebm
Smile on her face 
F#    Abm
keeps us all safe


Post Biss 1: Ebm- - B-- x2


Verse 2:
Ebm
   Is she laughing 
B
   when she's smiling?
Ebm             B
   Or is that a face that 
             Ebm
she carries around?
           B           Abm
To use when she hits a low
     Bb
Just shake it up let it go
Ebm           F#
   How do you deal with 
               B
their lies and blues?
                  Abm
If you're feeling down 
       Bb     Ebm
you'll always lose
                F#
So don't put me in 
                B
this restricted room
      Abm          Bb
Cause I don't know where to go


(Repeat Chorus)
