I'm gonna sing a song called Love [G] Is a Monstrous [D] Thing.
[G] It's [D] a [G]
[D] song about a young girl who's in love with a monster.
And she's in love with a monster.
[G]
[D] Pretty rain, drown [G] all my [A]
[D] feelings for you.
[G]
[D] [Em] I drove the five roads at [D] night, [G] in a busted up [D] car.
[Em] I searched the skyline in [D] vain, [G] for one god [D] damn star.
[G]
[D]
[E] [G] This [E] [D] city's a dream, but I'm wide awake.
[G]
Caught up [D] in the lights,
[G] with nothing [D] to say.
[G] My [D] soul has been bled, don't know for sure.
My heart is breaking,
[G] cause yours [D] is breaking too.
[Am]
[D] [Em] I've heard the mission [D] bells ring, [G] through the salt of [D] grace.
[Em] I've seen politicians [D] roam, [G] on a thousand [D] TV's.
[Em] There's a knife in every [D] back, [G] and one in every [D] hand.
[E] I swear it ain't [D] you, [G] California, I [D] can't stand.
Me right there with you,
[G] when the [D] last lamp runs dry.
[G] [A] When the [D] last hand's been played, when the black banners fly.
When
[G] [D] the songbirds have all, broken their throats.
The fire of St.
John,
[G] is [D] nothing but smoke.
[G]
[D] [Em] I've seen fire rolling [D] in, [G] and the flash bulbs [D] throw sparks.
[E] Suffering [D] time, [G] but illumine the dark.
[D] [Em] There's a knife in every [D] back, [G] and one in every [D] hand.
[E] I swear it ain't [D] you, [G] California, I [D] can't [Em] stand.
[D] I swear it [G] ain't you,
[D] [Em]
[D] I swear it [G] ain't you, [D] California.
