Verse 1:
F#maj7    C#               A#m        G#
   Never knew just why I came here
F#maj7      C#           A#m    G#
   It's as good as any place
F#maj7     C#
   Like a bad tattoo
   A#m                G#
Synthetic blues come rollin' down your face
F#maj7  C#                 G#
   and I don't mind the taste

Chorus:
C#add9           G#              D#   A#m
   But isn't it nice to get away?
C#add9             G#
   Clear my head up
      D#             A#m
and dull away the pain
C#add9            G#
   It's hard to see you
        D#            A#m
but I'm so glad you came
C#add9             G#                D#           A#m
   'Cause I don't feel too much in California rain

Verse 2:
F#maj7     C#                A#m      G#
   Never knew just how it started
F#maj7      C#              A#m     G#
   I never understood the pain
F#maj7        C#
   but I can feel the scars
       A#m
As the stars get dark
G#
rollin' up in waste
F#maj7  C#            G#
   Why throw away a face?

Chorus:
C#add9            G#             D#   A#m
   But isn't it nice to run away?
C#add9             G#
   Clear my head up
        D#                A#m
from abhorrent fits of rage
C#add9            G#
   It's hard to see you
           D#              A#m
   but I'm so glad you came
C#add9              G#                    D#           A#m
   'Cause I don't feel too much in the California rain
