Verse 1:
F#F#
Girl, our mamas are best friends and so are we
Bsus2Bsus2
The whole town's rooting for us like the home team

Most likely to settle down
BB
Plant a few roots real deep and let 'em grow
F#F#
But we can't stop this real world from spinnin' us
Bsus2Bsus2
Your bright lights called, I don't blame you for pickin' up
D#mD#m BB
Your big dream bags are all packed up and ready to go
But I just need you to know
Chorus:
F#F#
That I love you more than a California sunset
BB
More than a beer when you ain't twenty-one yet
D#mD#m
More than a Sunday morning Lord
BB
Turnin' some poor lost souls 'round, and Hallelujah bound
F#F#
Yeah, I love you more than the feeling when the bass hits the hook
BB
When the guy gets the girl at the end of the book
D#mD#m BB
But, baby, this might be the last time I get to lay you down
F#F#
'Cause I can't love you more than my hometown
Verse 2:
F#F#
I ain't the runaway kind, I can't change that

City sky ain't the same black

Ain't that a map dot shame, man, to think that

I love you more than a California sunset

More than a Sunday morning Lord

I need a house on the hill, girl, not in 'em

So hang onto these words 'til them avenues help you forget 'em
Chorus:
F#F#
'Cause I love you more than a California sunset

I love you more in a twenty-dollar sundress

Hate that loaded down car you got your keys in
