[Verse I]
   E minorEm
I was making Japanese
     B minorBm
And she's watching DVDs
  G+G      A augmentedA
In Oakland, in Oakland
    E minorEm
Now I'm driving up the 5
    B minorBm
And she waits till I arrive
  G+G      A augmentedA
In Oakland, in Oakland
E minorEm
 Everything, that I wanted
B minorBm
 Only gotta drive for the moment
G+G
 If you tell me "turn around," then I'm on it
A augmentedA
 For the moment, but you know me
E minorEm
 You know how I get when I'm lonely
B minorBm
 And I think about you and the moments
G+G                  A augmentedA
 But everything you do is so Oakland, so Oakland

[Hook]
   E minorEm
Foot on the gas
     B minorBm
I'm just trying to pass
    G+G
All the red lights
     A augmentedA
And the stop signs
  E minorEm
I'm ready to go
     B minorBm
Before I get to The Bay babe, that's a problem
G+G
 Because I'm way too scared to call
    A augmentedA
And you might get me to stay, and oh

[Verse II]
    E minorEm
I don't really mind the drive
   B minorBm
But I think I'd rather die
  G+G      F# minorF#m
In Oakland, in Oakland
    E minorEm
With my hands on two and ten
   B minorBm
So I guess it all depends
  G+G      F# minorF#m
On Oakland, on Oakland
    E minorEm
And I'm nervous, truth be told
    B minorBm
I never saw me growing old
  G+G      F# minorF#m
In Oakland, in Oakland
     E minorEm
And if I married you tonight
     B minorBm
It would probably start a riot
  G+G      F# minorF#m
In Oakland, in Oakland

[Verse III]
E minorEm
 Everything, that I needed
B minorBm
 Now that I got you in your feelings
G+G
 Everything you won't say, you tweet it
A augmentedA                  E minorEm
 And a nigga don’t like that shit at all

So treated
B minorBm
 Can we just roll with the feeling?
G+G
 Can we just roll for a minute?
A augmentedA
 Wait a minute

[Hook]
   E minorEm
Foot on the gas
     B minorBm
I'm just trying to pass
    G+G
All the red lights
     A augmentedA
And the stop signs
  E minorEm
I'm ready to go
    B minorBm
But I'm really not ready, girl

That's a problem
G+G
 Cause I'm way too scared to fall
   A augmentedA
And I know you choose to stay, and oh

[Verse IV]
E minorEm
 All the girlfriends saying "here we go again"
B minorBm
 Rich kid but he act like a gentleman
G+G
 Last one didn't end like it should've been
F# minorF#m
 Two dates and he still wanna get it in
E minorEm
 And they're saying it's because of the Internet
B minorBm
 Try her once and it's on to the next chick
G+G               F# minorF#m
 X-O the O face on your exes...right?
            E minorEm
And we can do the same thing if you wanna have at it
             B minorBm
When your thoughts can't breathe and you thinking asthmatic
          G+G
And you wanna be a mom and I wasn't mad at it
           F# minorF#m
I was thinking 'bout me, I'd be really bad at it
             E minorEm
Cause I'm thinking 'bout me, weeks in Dubai
      B minorBm               G+G
Fourth of July, house in Kauai, yeah we can try
     F# minorF#m
So let's try

[Verse V]
    E minorEm
I took off my nine to five
     B minorBm             G+G       F# minorF#m
But you still don't have the time to kiss me, just hit me
     E minorEm               B minorBm
And if I left you all alone, would you still pick up the phone?
   G+G       F# minorF#m
It's iffy, you miss me
  E minorEm               B minorBm
I got furniture to move, and we'll both be thirty soon
  G+G      F# minorF#m
In Oakland, in Oakland
     E minorEm            B minorBm
The only one I know is you, so the fuck I'm supposed to do?
  G+G      F# minorF#m
In Oakland, in Oakland
