Verse 1
=======

G                       D
Felt a little uneasy on easy street

Am               C                  G
Out of place and incomplete call it guilt

D                Am
Call it what you will




G                   D
Kissed good-bye the summer sky

Am            C      
Hollywood and Malibu tides

G                 D
Through thick and thin you got a 

Am             C
Good friend in me




G              D        C         G
Just give me a beer and give me a bed

G         D      C         G
Chase the demons out of my head

G         D         C         G
Play me a song and sing me to sleep

Am                              C
And meet me in the middle of my dreams

Verse 2
=======


G                                    D
Well I've seen the sun rise from the cliffs at Point Reyes

Am                        C
And I've seen it set upon Thunder Bay

G                    D           Am     C  
But I always keep my compass set on you

G                               D
When the night comes in and the stars come out,

Am                         C
The highway lines start to wear me out

G                     D                  Am   C
It'll be ok cause I'm coming back home to you

Am                          C
And distant salutations and silly souvenirs

Am                 
Can't help your twilight loneliness

   C
Or brush away your tears

Am
I'll wire you some love today

C
There's so much more I want to say

Am
But I'm Western Union desperate

C
At a pay phone in the rain

Am
And it's so insane

C
I'm Rimbaud and you're Verlaine

So hey! California here I come

G            D              C        G
I got my old backpack and a sunburnt thumb

G         D          C         G
I hope my compass is tried and true

Am
'Cause when I need a friend it's still you
