ARTIST: Everclear 
TITLE: Santa Monica

Verse I -
    G5     G5/E   G5
   I am still living with your ghost
              G5/E G5  G5/E  G5
   Lonely and dreaming of the west coast
              G5/E   D5   E5    C5 
   I don't want to be your downtime
  C5 D5 G5
   I don't want to be your stupid game

Verse II-
   With my big black boots and an old suitcase
   I do believe I'll find myself a new place
   I don't want to be the bad guy
   I don't want to do your sleepwalk dance anymore
   I just want to see some palm trees
   Go and try to shake away this disease

Chorus-
C5
   We can live beside the ocean
   C5            D5          G5
   Leave the fire behind
   G5             E5     D5
   Swim out past the breakers
   D5        C5      G5
   Watch the world die

Verse III-
   I am still dreaming of your face
   Hungry and hollow for all the things you took away
   I don't want to be your good time
   I don't want to be your fall-back crutch anymore

Verse IV-
   I'll walk right out into a brand new day
   Insane and rising in my own weird way
   I don't want to be the bad guy
   I don't want to do your sleepwalk dance anymore
   I just want to feel some sunshine
   I just want to find some place to be alone

Chorus-
   We can live beside the ocean
   Leave the fire behind
   Swim out past the breakers
   And watch the world die
