Hello mother
                       Am
It's good to hear your voice
         G
Yeah I'm fine
                 F
Better than I've been

    C
Oh, mother
                      Am
One more day of thirty-nine
        G
Can't believe it
                   F
Sure wish I didn't feel it


[Chorus]
C
  I'm on my way to California
Am
  I just need to see the sun
G
  Ain't so much about the weather
F                                C
But the demons I just can't outrun


I don't mean for you to worry
Am
  It's nowhere I ain't seen before
G
  I just had to say

Ain't no one else to blame
F
  If I don't make it out this storm


[Verse 2]
C
Mother
                         Am  
  Ain't nothing that you did
                   G
  Nothing that you said
                     F
  Just all I've ever known


[Chorus]
C
  I'm on my way to California
Am
  I just need to see the sun
G
  Ain't so much about the weather
F                                  C
  But the demons I just can't outrun


I don't mean for you to worry
Am
  It's nowhere I ain't seen before
G
  I just had to say

  Ain't no one else to blame
F
  If I don't make it out this storm

    C
Oh, mother

Am, G, F

C
  I'm on my way to California
Am
  I just need to see the sun
G
  Ain't so much about the weather
F
  But the demons I just can't outrun

C
  I don't mean for you to worry
Am
  It's nowhere I ain't seen before
G
  I just had to say

Ain't no one else to blame
F
  If I don't make it out this storm

    C
Oh, mother


[Outro]
                       Am
It's good to hear your voice
         G
Yeah I'm fine
                 F
Better than I've been
