California Lady Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]Walking all alone
down an old dried up creek [G]bed
Gotta clear [Am]my head
Picking up the pebbles
as I kick my feet into the clay
[G]Live one more day[Am] I pull[F]ed my jackknife
And I [G]carved our initials
In a [C]tree branch that hung so [Am]low
[G]I should have never let y[Am]ou go
Out in the backyard
In my old homemade rope swing
[G]The birds still sin[Am]g
I look at the clouds and the big blue skies
I pull [G]high, wish I could [Am]fly
You've [F]played with my mind
till I [G]don't know if I'm in love
[C]or just insane
[Am]Some[G]how it all seems the same[Am]
You [E]walk in the California sun[Am]shine
And [E]I'm in this Tennessee [Am]hill
[E]Tryin' to get it back together[Am]
[E]But I got to wonder if I [Am]will
California lady,
you possess me in a way I can't control
[G]You got my sou[Am]l
California sunshine
and a California lady's magic spell
[G]Or is it [Am]hell?
It's [F]played on my mind
Till [G]I don't know if I'm in [C]love
Or just in[Am]sane
[G]Somehow it all seems the[Am] same
You [E]walk in the California sun[Am]shine,
and [E]I'm in East Tennessee [Am]hill
[E]Tryin' to get it back togeth[Am]er,
[E]but I got to wonder if I [Am]will
California lady, you possess me
in a way I can't con[G]trol
You got my soul
[Am]
