Em Em Am Em
[Verse 1]
Em Am
Well I’ve been hanging on the west coast of my heart
Em
Right where I meant to from the start
Am D7 Em
It’s so much warmer than the secrets you’ve been holding in
Em Am
Don’t you look at me sideways with those eyes
Dm7 Em
Always acting like you ain’t got the time
Em Am D Em
I can’t imagine trying to carry what you hold inside
[Chorus]
D Em C
But o-ooh you’ve got a reason to sing
D Em C G
And o-ooh you’re finally listening
D Em C
And o-ooh you should go back to the start
Am D Em
‘Cause you can’t hold onto what’s inside your heart
[Solo]
Em Am D Em
Em Am D Em
[Verse 2]
Em Am
It’s good or bad or maybe somewhere in between
D Em
I’m getting older trying to find out what you mean
Am D7 Em
And in the end I guess some time is really what you need
Em Am
But these days I’ve been stumbling into the dark
D Em
Trying to forget all the bitter parts
Em Am D Em
It’s heavy luggage that I put down 'cause I finally see
[Chorus]
D Em C
That o-ooh I’ve got a reason to sing
D Em C G
And o-ooh I’m finally listening
D Em C
And o-ooh I’m going back to the start
Am D Em
‘Cause I can’t hold onto what’s inside my heart
[Solo]
Em Am D Em
Em Am D Em
[Post-Chorus]
Am
What’s inside your
D Em
What’s inside your heart?
Am D Em
What’s inside your heart?
[Bridge]
Em
What you’re doing has cut me to the bone
D Em
But I don’t wanna be sad no more
Em
Why you wanna keep running that lonely road?
D Em
‘Cause you don’t wanna be sad no more
Em
So I’ve been hanging on the west coast
D Em
I’ve been hanging on the west coast
Em
I’ve been hanging on the west coast
Am D Em
You can find me on the west coast
Em Am D Em
Hey!
Em Am D Em
Oh!
[Post-Chorus]
Em
(Hey!)
Am
What’s inside your
D Em
What’s inside your heart?
(Oh!)
D Em N.C. Em
What’s inside your heart?
[Outro]
Em D Em
(Hey!) Ooh and you got a you got a reason
Am D Em
Ooh, you’ve got a reason to sing
Em Am D Em
(Hey!) o-o--o--oh
Em D Em
(Oh!) La la la la la la la la
