Capo 3rd fret
Standard (EADGBE)
Theyre playin guitars with stars in their eyes on Broadway
Theyre just paying their dues and waitin for news on a big break
I wish you were here
Cuz sometimes I get lonely
Guess Im not the only new girl in town
Momma I promise Ill be alright
Ill call to say I love you every night
Im just tryin to write the story of my life
You know all about this dream I gotta chase
I get a little closer everyday
Californias not that far away
Im not that far away
Theres so many new faces and beautiful places in this town
Im learnin the ropes on this crazy road Im goin down
Im makin my way
No one said that itd be easy
Trust me believe me
Im where I belong
Momma I promise Ill be alright
Ill call to say I love you every night
Im just tryin to write the story of my life
You know all about this dream I gotta chase
I get a little closer everyday
Californias not that far away
Im not that far away
Were miles apa-art
But youre in my hea-art
I keep you with me everywhere I go
Momma I promise Ill be alright
Ill call to say I love you every night
Im just tryin to write the story of my life
You know all about this dream I gotta chase
I get a little closer everyday
Californias not that far away
Im not that far away
