[Intro]
Dm G F G (x3)
Dm G F
[Chorus]
Dm G
It’s lonely at the bottom, I don’t often feel as badly
F G
As I do while out in pursuit of things I thought would make me happy
Dm G
Fruits of labour rotting ain’t no stopping in a valley
F G
And they said “ya ain’t goin’ make it til you make it out to Cali”, see
Dm G
Dready headed momma selling jewelry in the alley
F G
She’d been California dreaming since she sang it with her daddy
Dm G
Steady moving west said she won't be another tally
F G
And she says “I know you’ll make it and I’ll see you out in Cali”
[Verse 1]
Dm G F G
Said you’d never know how hard it was
Dm G F G
Living on the road runs in your blood
Dm G F G
It’s hard to leave you were always there for me
Dm G F (no chord)
And I know we’re both working towards what comes
[Chorus]
Dm G
It’s lonely at the bottom, I don’t often feel as badly
F G
As I do while out in pursuit of things I thought would make me happy
Dm G
Fruits of labour rotting ain’t no stopping in a valley
F G
And they said “ya ain’t goin’ make it til you make it out to Cali”, see
Dm G
Dready headed momma selling jewelry in the alley
F G
She’d been California dreaming since she sang it with her daddy
Dm G
Steady moving west said she won't be another tally
F G
And she says “I know you’ll make it and I’ll see you out in Cali”
[Verse 2]
Dm G F G
Now that many years have past and more
Dm G F G
We don't hear the words like we did before
Dm G F G
Prove them wrong being sold as underdogs
Dm G F (no chord)
I will make this up to you before long
[Bridge]
Dm
No destination gonna leave me brains sick
G
I ain't never ran from nothing so I've never been messed up
F
My situation has complications
G
And we never leave anything up to the gate
Dm G
I can’t think back to a time when my mind was getting side tracked
F G
So Sit back relax and give yourself a minute to figure out where your head’s at
Dm G F
We’re all so quick to make decisions and now it’s up to our knees
G Dm
Opinions changing on the daily and I know who I want to be
G
So I am ride it, and it’s my plane and I’m the pilot
F
All hands on deck to open knowledge
G
Gaze on our new horizons, so
[Chorus]
Dm G
It’s lonely at the bottom, I don’t often feel as badly
F G
As I do while out in pursuit of things I thought would make me happy
Dm G
Fruits of labour rotting ain’t no stopping in a valley
F G
And they said “ya ain’t goin’ make it til you make it out to Cali”, see
Dm G
Dready headed momma selling jewelry in the alley
F G

Dm G
Steady moving west said she won't be another tally
F G
And she says “I know you’ll make it and I’ll see you out in Cali”
