intro: C Dm G G7

C            Dm
going out to California
G             C     C/B     Am
gonna let the water warm my clothes
               Dm
I’m alone but I’m not lonely
G               G7                      Am
gonna trade the weather for the Western coast
Dm
no don’t cry
G          
I’ll be back and I’ll
C         C/B     Am
bring the sun to shine
Dm
in your eyes
G             G7
on your shoulders


C                      Dm
Sunset Boulevard will strip for money
G               C                 C/B    Am
Mulholland is a long drag for the lonely hearts
               Dm
down along the Imperial Valley
G               G7                      Am
runs a river of homelessness and cinema stars
Dm
don’t say
G
the trip’s been done
C         C/B      Am
a hundred thousand times
Dm
cause this one
G        G7
is mine


C                 Dm
so I will work at what work finds me
G                    C       C/B   Am 
and I will take what comfort I can get
                     Dm
I’ll be back when I’m good and ready
G                                          Am
California doesn’t seem to think I’m ready yet
Dm
It's alright
G
I’ll be back and I’ll
C         C/B    Am
bring the sun to shine
D
in your eyes
G
on your shoulders
