[Intro]

G G

[Verse 1]
G G
Well, I used to like to ramble with my good-time friends and neighbors
C G
Now I find I'd rather lie awake in bed
G G
And I don't get to actin' mean when I keep my buzzes clean
A D
And keep the hard stuff and the whiskey from my head
G G
Well, I guess that's just the trouble when you're always seein' double
C G
And the lines are gettin' twice as hard to see
C G Em
I've had years I don't recall, but I'm told I had a ball
A D G
At least somebody did who looked a lot like me

[Chorus]
G G
So I'm California sober as they say
C G
And lately I can't find no other way
C G Em
I can't stay out and party like I did back in the day
A D G
So I'm California sober as they say

[Verse 2]
G G
Well, I heard out in the hills, they got pills to get their thrills
C G
And they love their liquor down in New Orleans
G G
Maybe for a New York minute, sugarcane will fit the bill
A D
But in no time flat, you're out of what you need
