California

A D A

[Verse 1]

       A                     Bm
It's a 3 day drive if she drives all night
           D                 A
Says she's leavin' at the crack of dawn
        A                     Bm
Well she might still be lyin' here with me
             D                     A
But in her heart she's already gone
             A                   Bm
Already packed up, the Altima's gassed up
                     D              A
She's done put the map up there on the dash
         A                       Bm
I'm all tore up just tryin' to man up
             D                              A
Damnin' these tears up but can't hold 'em back

[Chorus]

                A
Cause she's in love with California
           Bm
And that west coast sunshine dream
                 D
These ain't no Hollywoods
          E           A
And these hills ain't Beverly
           A
Ain't no beaches on these backroads
    Bm
No sunset on the boulevard
         D           E
She's in love with California
                A
And breakin' my heart

[Verse 2]

A                          Bm
Got a waitress job waitin' in an ihop
           D                     A
Throw a rock and hit universal city
     A                  Bm
Got a glamour shot in her hip pocket
        D                       A
Hopin' somebody'll think she's pretty
             A                       F#m
By this time tomorrow she'll hit Colorado
           D                              A
I'll be drownin' my sorrow in a bottle of Beam
              A                         Bm
Before she hits flagstaff maybe she'll backtrack
        D                          A
But I wouldn't bet that if I was me

[Chorus]

                A
Cause she's in love with California
           Bm
And that west coast sunshine dream
                 D
These ain't no Hollywoods
          E           A
And these hills ain't Beverly
           A
Ain't no beaches on these backroads
    Bm
No sunset on the boulevard
         D           E
She's in love with California
                A
And breakin' my heart

[Bridge]

            Bm
Well she was all mine
          D
Now it's go time

[Chorus]

                A
Cause she's in love with California
           Bm
And that west coast sunshine dream
                 D
These ain't no Hollywoods
          E           A
And these hills ain't Beverly
           A
Ain't no beaches on these backroads
    Bm
No sunset on the boulevard
         D           E
She's in love with California
                A
And breakin' my heart
