Verse 1
G           Bm      C          G
I've been a savior, a sideman, a stranger
Em       G      Em        D     
Stung by anger, burned by love.
G       Bm         C                   G          Em     
Feel so scattered like nothing really matters anymore.
         G        Em          D     
Put that sign out on my front door.

Chorus
C          D              G     
Hitchin' a ride down the PCH.
           C      C/D Am G  D  
I got some things I need to say.
        Am               D     Am  G
Callin' out a friend of mine.

C       D                         G     
I don't know where the years have gone.
              C      C/D   Am G D   
Just know I'm worse for hangin' on.
              Am                        D   Am  G  
Maybe it'd be best if I just let things lie.
Am              D                 C   G  
Guess I'm never gonna get back to Ojai.

G-F-Am-C-G

Verse 2
I knew a good man. He was a break in 
the clouds hangin' so low down.
It's got me to thinking, it's not like he gave in.
He just never got that second win.

2nd Chorus (repeat of above)

Bridge
C G  C Em D
Ojai Ojai

Verse 3
I've been a savior, a sideman, a stranger
Son, hedge your wager, cause life aint fair.
I been shaken, sorely mistaken this path I've taken
Its goin nowhere.

Final Chorus

Callin' out a friend of mine.

Just know I'm worse for hangin' on.

Maybe it'd be best if I just let things lie.
Am              D                 C   G  
Guess I'm never gonna get back to Ojai.
