California On My Mind

	  		C 
Well I got California on my mind 

                          G7 
I?m leaving this old town behind 

C 
I?m tired of sitting and I?m tired of pining 

F 
I?m going back where the sun is shining 

C         G7           C 
I got California on my mind 



Well I got stuck in this dingy city 

F 
But I?m not gonna stay 

C 
I?m tired of these red brick buildings 

D7                  G7 
And I?m gonna leave today 


C 
It?s been one cold and dreadful winter 

F 
And I?m going back to the grapevine center 

C          G7                  C 
Pack up my things and be on my way 


C 
Well I got California on my mind 

                          G7 
I?m leaving this old town behind 

C 
I?m tired of sitting and I?m tired of pining 

F 
I?m going back where the sun is shining 

C         G7           C 
I got California on my mind 



Well I got a gal in Redwood city 

F 
That I?d sure like to see 

C 
And I?d bet my bottom dollar 

D7                   G7 
She?s still sweet on me 


C 
Well I?m a homesick bat couldn?t be no sicker 

F 
I?m proud to say that I?m a prune picker 

C             G7            C 
This town and me just don?t agree 


C 
Well I got California on my mind 

                          G7 
I?m leaving this old town behind 

C 
I?m tired of sitting and I?m tired of pining 

F 
I?m going back where the sun is shining
