Standard (EADGBE)

I've done my best to forget you, dumped your perfume down my drain

My telephone is always in use, day and night

You've got a weird conception of love if you thought that was love

Like a rocket, I am ready to fly

Back lit so you can't see their faces, your replacement is everywhere

Brown bodies just a little too wide prance around

O.K., let's say my judgement was poor give me one more chance

And like a rocket, I will fly to your side

Chorus

You got a hold of my heart (3x)

California makes it hard to be lonely, you’re supposed to feel happy this year

So the days show traces of tears in your eyes

I've done my very best to forget you and in fact, I failed

And like a rocket, I will fly to your side

Chorus

The grass is greener on the other side, that's what some old guy said

But I know that old guy must have lied or he was out of his head

Chorus
