[Intro 1]
[A][A][A][A]
[A][A][A][A]

[Verse 1]
[A]John and Mitchy were gettin' kind of itchy
Just to leave the folk music behind
[D]Zal and Denny workin' for a penny
[A]Tryin' to get a fish on the line
In a [E]coffee house Sebastian sat
And [D]after every number they'd pass the hat
Mc[A]Guinn and McGuire just a gettin' higher
In L.A., you know where that's [D]at
And no one's gettin' [C]fat except Mama [A]Cass

[Verse 2]
[A]Zally said Denny, you know there aren't many
Who can sing a song the way that you do,
let's go south
[D]Denny said Zally,
golly, don't you think that I wish
[A]I could play guitar like you
Zal, [E]Denny and Sebastian sat
(at the Night Owl)
And [D]after every number they'd pass the hat
Mc[A]Guinn and McGuire still a gettin' higher
In L.A., you know where that's [D]at
And no one's gettin' [C]fat except Mama [A]Cass

[Verse 3]
When [A]Cass was a sophomore,
planned to go to Swarthmore
But she changed her mind one day
[D]Standin' on the turnpike,
thumb out to hitchhike
[A]Take me to New York right away
When [E]Denny met Cass
he gave her love bumps
[D]Called John and Zal
and that was the Mugwumps
Mc[A]Guinn and McGuire couldn't get no higher
But that's what they were aimin' [D]at
And no one's gettin' [C]fat except Mama [A]Cass

[Verse 4]
[A]Mugwumps, high jumps,
low slumps, big bumps
Don't you work as hard as you play
[D]Make up, break up, everything is shake up
[A]Guess it had to be that way
Se[E]bastian and Zal formed the Spoonful
Mi[D]chelle, John, and Denny gettin' very tuneful
Mc[A]Guinn and McGuire just a catchin' fire
In L.A., you know where that's [D]at
And everybody's gettin' [C]fat
except Mama [A]Cass

[Solo 1]

[Verse 5]
Broke, [A]busted, disgusted,
agents can't be trusted
And Mitchy wants to go to the sea
[D]Cass can't make it,
she says we'll have to fake it
We [A]knew she'd come eventually
[E]Greasin' on American Express cards
[D]It's low rent, but keeping out the heat's hard
[A]Duffy's good vibrations and our imaginations
Can't go on indefinite[D]ly
And California dreamin'
is be[C]comin' a reali[A]ty
