Intro:

A Em Bm D6 Dm

Verse 1:
                 A
You could be an angel, babe
                                                    Em
And I wouldn't know it, I wouldn't give a damn, no way
                                     Bm
Life has been passin' by, passin' me up
                                   Dm
And I'm holdin' on for what it's worth
                                A
'Cause all I got is me and my faith (my faith)
                                Em
That I fall hard, fought to keep down
                              Bm
And it's takin' me far from grounded
                                    Dm
But it means somethin' that you're proud

Pre-Chorus:
         A
'Cause I fight to stay way too many days
       Gmaj7
And I drag my feet through too many waves
            D
Bigger than I can swim
Fmaj7           Dm
Then I start again

Chorus:
               A
Let's leave California
                      Em
Maybe I need to cross the border
                           Bm
Away from my demons and disorders
                               Dm      Gmaj7
Nothin' can catch us if we're runnin' forward
     A                              Em
And maybe everyone here would call me crazy
                                    Bm
And then you'd tell 'em it's the borderline
                            Dm           G
No one can catch me if I'm runnin' forward

Verse 2:
A                                 Em
   And my exes wanna see me in a padded room
                                Bm
But I think I need nature and a Valium
                                   Dm
You saw passed my outbursts and my attitude
                   G                 A
So I ain't mad at you, I still ain't mad at you
                                       Em7
And if they lock me up, would you come visit?
                                      Bm7
And if they make me stay, would you consider stayin'?
                               Dm
And waitin' outside, have you made up your mind?
        G7         G
I'm medicated this time

Pre-Chorus:
         A
'Cause I fight to stay way too many days
       G
And I drag my feet through too many waves
   Em        D         Dmaj7
Bigger than I can swim
Fmaj7       F       Dm
    Then I start again

Chorus:
               A
Let's leave California
                      Em7
Maybe I need to cross the border
                           Bm7
Away from my demons and disorders
                               Dm      G
Nothin' can catch us if we're runnin' forward
     A                              Em7
And maybe everyone here would call me crazy
                                    Bm7
And then you'd tell 'em it's the borderline
