[Verse]
A                                        B
I found you at the shore, lying on your back,
                  D                   A
Staring down the sun as the tide came in.
                                                B
You asked me for some wine, through your sandy hair,
                    D                          A
And we went to del ray, we took our sea legs there.
A    E  D Dm

[Chorus]
A                                     E       D
California girl take me back to the west coast.
A                                   E       D
California girl you are the one I miss most.

[Verse]
A
We raised the sail to see what we could see see see.
N.c.
But all I saw was you, and all you saw was me.
A
We went into the night as I held your hip.
N.c.
The ship went on, we fell asleep so quick.
A    E  D Dm

[Chorus]
A                                     E       D
California girl take me back to the west coast.
A                                   E       D
California girl you are the one I miss most.
