Intro:
G Am Bb C
G Am Bb Csus4 C

G                Am
Starin' down the boulevard
Bb                    C
Crescent heights, the city lights
G       Am     Bb            Csus4 C
The way... to another wasted day
G              Am
Shiny cars and shooting stars
Bb         C              
California dreamin' in my
G    Am        Bb                 Csus4 C
ear...  I just wish that you were here


Em  D            G   D/F#
I'm dealing with scars
Em             D          C
Just tryin' to see who we are


G                       D
Nobody said it would be easy
Am                         C
Fighting your way through another day
G         D            Am  C
I think I know how you feel
G                          D
Looking for something that matters
Am                            C
Keeping it together when it's all been shattered
G      D              Am  C
We all want something real
D    G D C D
Ohhh...

G             Am
Summer's on a holiday
Bb                 C   
Pills to chase the blues away
    G    Am           Bb            Csus4 C
Who knows... just how far the story goes
   G             Am
So listen to the radio
Bb            C
Turn it up so you can sing
 G    Am      Bb                   Csus4 C
along... Even though the notes are wrong

Em  D           G  D/F#
I'm building up walls
Em            D             C
And trying to break all the falls


G                       D
Nobody said it would be easy
Am                         C
Fighting your way through another day

I think I know how you feel

Looking for something that matters
Am                            C
Keeping it together when it's all been shattered
G      D              C
We all want something real

Bm                   EmAddG
All your life you're wondering
EmAddG               C
We don't know what's happening
C/B               D
Something's gotta give
Bm                  EmAddG
Falling through the atmosphere
EmAddG           C
See the world in black and white 
C/B              D
Picture's coming clear
C                C/B                D
How many times I wish that you were here

[Awesome drum fill]

G                       D
Nobody said it would be easy
Am                         C
Fighting your way through another day
G         D            Am  C
I think I know how you feel
G                          D
Looking for something that matters
Am                            C
Keeping it together when it's all been shattered
G      D              C   D
We all want something real

I think I know how you feel
A                          E
Looking for something that matters
Bm                            D
Keeping it together when it's all been shattered
A      E              D   E

We all want something real  Ohhhh...
