Intro

Verse i

As usual, I'm in a tricky predicament

Weather in my thoughts, on the roof sneaking a cigarette

Dear California, it's been nice to know ya

Tell me will you miss me when I'm gone?

Chorus i

  Cause he loves me as I leave, so I'm gonna go

  And I'm not in company's when you feel it most

  And you keep my memory, I hope ya keep me close

  Would you love me as I leave?

Verse ii

This alchemy is making me suspicious (Oooh-oooh)

As if I slipped you some belladonna

  that I crossed town to get, don't you know?

  (Drop)

Yes, my grand friend checks it

Chorus i

  Oh he loves me as I leave, so I'm gonna go

  And I'm not in company's when you feel it most

  And you keep my memory, I hope ya keep me close

  Would you love me as I leave?

Chorus ii

  Ever changing as the sea, it's my only hope

  It's just me and my pup in the open road

  But your face is like a paper cut to the heart

  Slip away while you sleep

Bridge

It's easy, it's easier

Than it seems

It's easy, it's easier

Than it seems

Just go, I'll go, don't cry

(Drop)

Don't go, don't go, you still cry

  I don't cry

Chorus i

  Oh he loves me as I leave, so I'm gonna go

  And I'm not in company's when you feel it most

  And you keep my memory, I hope ya keep me close

  Would you love me as I leave?

Coda

  Ever changing as the sea

  Would you love me as I leave? (Dear California)

  Would you love me as I leave? (Dear California)

  Would you love me as I leave? (Dear California)

  - (Drop)

Would you love me as I leave? (Dear California)
