A
Goin' to California
D              A
Suitcase in my hand

      E          F#m
Never run away a boy
             D           A
When you can walk away a man

A
Pride it comes to find you
        D                 A
In your hopes and in your dreams
       E                   F#m
Like a thief who tells his lover
         D        A
He's got one last thing.

      D
Cause I can see the shadows
       A          E
At the foot of my door
D
I can see the faces
           A           E
They don't doubt us anymore
D
I can see it coming
         A        E
I pray I don't go blind
       F#m           E
In the middle of our reckoning time

Verse III:

A
Easy is a refuge
            D             A
And it's an easy place to be
             E          F#m
But when the sun shines on us
              D           A
What will the whole world think


Chorus:

      D
Cause I can see the shadows
       A          E
At the foot of my door
D
I can see the faces
           A           E
They don't doubt us anymore
D
I can see it coming
         A        E
I pray I don't go blind
       F#m           E              A        F#m
In the middle of our reckoning time
       E             E
In the middle of our reckoning time


Interlude:

F#m                      E
The nature of the broken
                     A
Spirit of the chosen
   A     D F#m        E F#m
We stand alone
                              E
A journey through the purpose

                                  A
The weight of when it's worthless
    A     E     F#m
The words don't show
       E
In the middle of our reckoning time
