Tuning: G C E A (G C E A) Intro: Am F C Em Verse 1: Am F I don't live in California, I'll inform you, that's not where I reside C Em I'm just tenant, paying rent inside this body and I Am F Got two windows and those windows, well I'll call them my eyes C Em I'm just going where the wind blows, I don't get to decide
