[Intro 1]
[G][D][Em][C][Em][C]
[G][D][Em][C]

[Verse 1]
It was a [G]beer and a bourbon,
a conver[D]sation and a kiss
It [Bm]started a f[Em]ire
Led [G]to a night of holding each other close
[D]Through teardrops and desir[Em]e
Two [C]half -broken people heading [Am]west
Shared a motel room
[G]Killed a l[D]ittle emptiness
[Em]The morning came too s[C]oon
On the [Am]way to
Califor[G]nia
Can't [C]you hear
Californi[Am]a
Calling your [G]name
A siren [C]song
Once [Am]you hear it
Nothing is the [G]same
Made [D]ancient
Spaniards [Em]sail
Made
[D]Guthrie ride the [C]rail[Am][G][D]
That [G]highway to freedom became a
[D]sweet lost [Bm]weeke[D]nd for me [Em]and you
I [G]detoured through the mountains up to
Santa
[D]Fe [Bm]with nothing much to do[Em]
You [C]said you're starting over in
L [Am].A.
Now that he's cut you loose
[G]I'm hea[D]ded north of there
[Em]Don't know why she l[D]eft that way[C]
I might land in
Santa
[Am]Cruz
Califor[G]nia
Can you [C]hear
Californi[Am]a
California, callin' your name
[G]A siren's son[C]g, once you[Am] hear it
Nothin' is the [G]same
Called
[D]Marilyn
Monroe
[Em]Made [D]miners rush for [C]gold[Am]
Oh,
Califor[G]nia
I [Am]know a year, it's come and gone
That [G]you probably moved on
But [Am]girl, your memory won't go [D]away
I [C]know that this sounds crazy wrong
But if [G]you hear this song
Octo[Am]ber 1st means me and
[D]Moby
Can't you [C]hear
Californi[Am]a
[G]A siren s[C]ong, once y[Am]ou hear it,
nothing is the [G]same
She's [D]whispering soft and [Em]low,
[D]come and hold me [C]close[Am]
Ah,
Califor[G]nia[D]
In
Califor[Em]nia[C]
[G]California
California
