The song is about a person reflecting on a past relationship where their partner left them and moved to California. They still have remnants of the other person in their home and are stuck thinking about the past. They hope that when their ex reaches California, they will think back on the relationship and return.

I got your runaway smile in my piggybank baby Bm A
A Thinking how you left me for dead Gonna cash it right in for a new Mercedes G Bm A G California bound You were worth the hundred thousand miles D Bm A G And when you hit the coast But you couldn't stay awhile A D I hope you think of me I got your little brown shirt in my bottom drawer baby Bm A G A And how I'm stuck here with the ghost of what we used to be And your little white socks in the top drawer G Bm A G You're burnin' bridges baby You were always leaving your shit around Burnin' bridges, making wishes Bm A G A And gone without a sound Yeah you're burnin' bridges baby A Burnin' bridges, making wishes Yeah I'm the first to fall and the last to know G G You're burnin' bridges baby Where'd you go? Burnin' bridges, making wishes D A Now I'm heels over head Yeah you're burnin' bridges baby A Burnin' bridges, making wishes I'm hangin' upside down G Bm A You're a chance taker, heartbreaker Thinking how you left me for dead A G Got me wrapped around your finger California bound G D Chance taker, heartbreaker I got a first class ticket to a night all alone A A Got me wrapped around your finger And a front row seat up right by the phone D Bm A G I got your runaway smile in my piggybank baby Cause you're always on my mind A Bm A G Gonna cash it right in for a new Mercedes And I'm running out of time Bm A G D If I drive a hundred thousand miles I've got your hair on my pillow and your smell in my sheets Bm A G A Would you let me stay a while? And it makes me think about you with the sand in your feet D Bm A G Now I'm heels over head, Is it all you thought it'd be? A Bm A G I'm hangin' upside-down You mean everything to me Bm A A Thinking how you left me for dead But I'm the first to fall and the last to know G G California bound And where'd you go? D D And when you hit the coast Now I'm heels over head, A A I hope you think of me Bm A G And how I'm stuck here with the ghost of what we used to be D Now I'm heels over head, A I'm hangin' upside-down Bm A Thinking how you left me for dead G California bound D And when you hit the coast A Maybe you'll finally see Bm A G And then you'll turn it all around and you'll come back to me
