        B (x2444x@1)               C#m (x13321@4)       A (x02220@1)                EAnd (022100@1)the walls are closing in like the darkness around me
           B (x2444x@1)        C#m (x13321@4)                 A (x02220@1)          EIt's (022100@1)so hard to look away when the daylight doesn't ever stay
            B (x2444x@1)             C#m (x13321@4)    A (x02220@1)                 EAbove (022100@1)this dull apartment view - oh, I will surround you
                 B (x2444x@1)                 C#mIt's (x13321@4)quite clear that I'm stuck here
           A (x02220@1)            E (022100@1)       B (x2444x@1)             C#m (x13321@4)        A (x02220@1)   ESo (022100@1)I'll devise a plan and cut out a door in my new living room floor
               B (x2444x@1)           C#mThe (x13321@4)porch light is so bright
             A (x02220@1)                   E (022100@1)        B (x2444x@1)                C#m (x13321@4)     AThat (x02220@1)I will quickly sneak down the dark metal shape of the rusty fire escape.

C#m (x13321@4)      A (x02220@1)            EI (022100@1)bought a one-way ticket
                 B (x2444x@1)           C#mCause (x13321@4)I knew I'd never see the ground
               A (x02220@1)             E (022100@1)                B (x2444x@1)   C#mUnless (x13321@4)I was aboard a jet plane and we were going down.
                 A (x02220@1)               EWhen (022100@1)I wiped the tears from my eyes
               B (x2444x@1)             C#mThe (x13321@4)warm water took me by surprise
                A (x02220@1)               E (022100@1)     BAnd (x2444x@1)I woke up beside the ocean and I realized:
E (022100@1)       BI (x2444x@1)must be in California.

E, B, C#m, A (x4) [I must be in California]

               B (x2444x@1)         C#m (x13321@4)              A (x02220@1)                  EThe (022100@1)beach homes in Oceanside are quite well-known by the evening tide
             B (x2444x@1)           C#m (x13321@4)          A (x02220@1)            EAnd (022100@1)we can sleep where we reside with redwoods around us.
            B (x2444x@1)         C#m (x13321@4)          AThe (x02220@1)blue air is up there and could I bring it down,
     E (022100@1)       B (x2444x@1)                  C#m (x13321@4)        AI'd (x02220@1)bottle it up and save it for a sweet summer night.

C#m (x13321@4)      A (x02220@1)            EI (022100@1)bought a one-way ticket
                 B (x2444x@1)           C#mCause (x13321@4)I knew I'd never see the ground

   A (x02220@1)        E (022100@1)            B (x2444x@1)     
Am I awake or is this just a dream?

(KEY CHANGE, MOVE CAPO UP TO 5TH FRET)
