California All The Way

          D                 A     
Well, she followed him from 
         Bm  G  A
Phoenix out to Califor
D             A                 
 And then she passed out on the 
Bm   G A
bed
D            A                Bm
 And all the little things he 
         G         A
never even asked her for
D           A                    
 She simply smiled and shook her 
Bm   G A
head

[Chorus]
D   A        Bm                 
Why can't we smile just like we 
G    A
used to
D   A         Bm        G    A
Why don't you figure anymore
D   A      Bm           G       
Why has my sympathy now turned to 
  A
malice
D           A         Bm   G  A
 It doesn't matter anymore

[Verse 2]
D          A           Bm       
 And now I realize I'm livin' 
     G       A
like a trucker does
Continues after the ad
D           A               Bm   
 Although I haven't got the belly
 G  A

D               A              
 And though she followed me to 
Bm         G       A
California all the way
D       A               Bm     G  A
 I only wanna watch the telly

[Chorus]
D   A        Bm                 
Why can't we smile just like we 
G    A
used to
D   A         Bm        G    A
Why don't you figure anymore
D   A      Bm           G       
Why has my sympathy now turned to 
  A
malice
D           A         Bm   G  A
 It doesn't matter anymore

[Instrumental]
D   A   Bm   G A  (x7)

D   A   Bm   G A D  n.c.

[Verse 3]
D             A                   
 He asked her please stop quotin' 
Bm         G       A
Rod McKuen in your postcards
D           A           Bm     G  A
 Can't understand it anymore
D            A               Bm 
 And if your gonna read your 
     G       A
poetry aloud to me
D             A               Bm
 I'll have to show you to the 
      G  A
door

[Chorus]
D   A        Bm                 
Why can't we smile just like we 
G    A
used to
D   A         Bm        G    A
Why don't you figure anymore
D   A      Bm           G       
Why has my sympathy now turned to 
  A
malice
D           A         Bm   G  A
 It doesn't matter anymore
