[Intro]
C I met you at a party G You were looking for your car keys Am Rich kids and Bob Marley F Yeah they're never any fun C So we drove out to the ocean G Just to finally feel some motion Am The waves sounded like explosions F And we counted every one
[Pre-Chorus]
G Am F And you kissed like the Queen of California G Am F And it felt like I hadn't been born
[Chorus]
C I really miss your West Coast JV G I know you had to get yourself free Am F I know it gets hard just to breathe sometimes C I'm never gonna forget your name G I'll never see the world quite the same Am F I'll always keep a part of your dreams with mine C Csus2 C With mine
[Verse 2]
C You and me we're different pages G Torn out of the same book Am My parents they just gave up F And yours wore each other down C We spent so long believing G We were less than what we needed Am Twenty years of screaming F And we barely made a sound
[Pre-Chorus]
G Am F But you kissed like the Queen of California G Am F And it felt like I hadn't been born
[Chorus]
C I really miss your West Coast JV G I know you had to get yourself free Am F I know it gets hard just to breathe sometimes C I'm never gonna forget your name G I'll never see the world quite the same Am F I'll always keep a part of your dreams with mine
[Bridge]
G Am And we hated the way everybody talked F About their father's money and their summer jobs G Am Princes and Princesses trying to get lost F C In German cars that their parents bought G Am In the fade and the glow of the summer light F C G You asked me if I ever felt the pressure to get everything right
To swim the mess
Am To stay the course F To be someone C Csus2 C That they adore
[Chorus]
C I really miss your West Coast JV G I know you wore your heart on your sleeve Am F I know it gets hard just to breath sometimes C I'm always gonna call out your name G I'll never see the world quite the same Am F I'll always keep a part of your dreams with mine C With mine
