[Intro]
Am G Am Am
[Verse 1]
F C
They say that I'm the King of California,
F
they tip their hats and wave.
Am G
But hey, dont say I didn't warn you:
F
'cause with the other hand they'll clench their fists
Am
and when you turn your back they'll stab and twist.
F
It's the life that we must live
G
when we find fortune.
F C
There's a pocket watch in the jacket on my shoulders
F
and I feel its weight as time goes by
Am G
and I keep on getting older...
[Bridge]
F
I reach for gold to place my bet,
Am
brush past the half-toked cigarette,
F
it's a lonely life inside my head
G
but still I'm hanging on.
[Chorus]
F C
I keep waiting,
Am G
waiting all along
F C
for you to cave in.
Am G
Admit that you were wrong!
F C
For all you gave me,
Am G
for all... for all my pride.
F
You were the fall of me.
G Am
You owe me an apology!
[Verse 2]
F C
I've done some things I ain't to proud to say
F
and there's a God above who'll come to judge
Am G
but what's His hurry anyway?
F C
See, we've all got scars that prove our test
Am
you either walk away or you get left
F
I remember every word you said
G
and now still I'm hanging on
[Chorus]
F C
I keep waiting,
Am G
waiting all along
F C
for you to cave in.
Am G
Admit that you were wrong!
F C
For all you gave me,
Am G
I swear for all my pride:
F
You were the fall of me.
G Am
You owe me an apology!
[Instrumental]
G D F
[Verse 3]
F C
I walked a hundred miles in a day
F
I climbed a mountain
Am
staked my flag
G
and I watched it fly away
F
see Heaven has no time
Am
for this man's crooked games or politics
F
it's a lovers' war, a takers' gift
G
and it all gets washed away
and still I'm...
F C
...waiting,
Am F C
waiting all along for you to cave in.
Am G
Admit that you were wrong
F C
for all you gave me!
Am G
I swear for all my pride
F
you were the fall of me
G
and I-iiii... am here
F C
I just keep wai-ting.
Am
Waiting all along for you to
F C
cave in.
Am G F C
Admit that you were wrong for all you gave me,
Am G F
well fuck my pride, ahh...
G F G
oh, you were the fall of me.
Am
you owe me an apology!
G Am C
Yeah,
you owe me an apology!
