Califonia

	  		C                                Am 
Now it's getting so I'm mad when someone says your name 
G                                               C 
'Cause I've had to say good-bye to friends who couldn't stay away 
      F                             C 
And sometimes it felt so wrong to never want to lean on you 
     F                   G                 C 
You may stand tall, but I've got two feet too 

C                             Am 
Now we talked of you in bars around a quiet beer 
G                                           C 
Tell their tales of mine-gone stones where no one else can hear 
    F                                   C 
And later on outside, they say they're getting on a plane 
    F           G          C 
To fly away, leaving you again 

Am                          C 
California, my friends all call you home 
            G                          C 
And if you take away another, I'll be that much more alone 
      F                                  C 
Is it my fault that my kind are always drawn toward the sun 
         F                G              C 
Like a child to home whenever darkness comes 

C                                          Am 
Now in a few more years, I won't remember what it was to play 
G                                     C 
The music of old friends who need to live so far away 
     F                                  C 
But can I once taste more than waters, then forsake them for the South 
     F                 F          C 
To feel California's ashes in my mouth 

Am                          C 
California, my friends all call you home 
            G                          C 
And if you take away another, I'll be that much more alone 
      F                                  C 
Is it my fault that my kind are always drawn toward the sun 
         F                G              C 
Like a child to home whenever darkness comes 

Am                          C 
California, my friends all call you home 
            G                          C 
And if you take away another, I'll be that much more alone 
      F                                  C 
Is it my fault that my kind are always drawn toward the sun 
         F                G              C 
Like a child to home whenever darkness comes 
         F                G              C 
Like a child to home whenever darkness comes
