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

[Verse 1]
[G]Why's everyone
still singing about Cali[Em]fornia?
[D]Haven't we heard [Em]enough
about the Golden [C]State?
[G]I guess if you like sandy beaches
and blue [Em]ocean water
There's [D]something [Dsus4]about it,[D]
[Em]to which I cannot relate[C]
[G]I need to see the leaves change
and the snow[Am]flakes [Em]falling
[D]I need to hear the call,
the wind [Em]whistling through the winter pines
[C]

[Verse 2]
[D][Chorus]
Why's everyone still [Am]singing
about Califor[Em]nia?
[Am]Haven't we heard [G]enough
about the [C]Golden State?
And [D]people still follow [Em]them dreams
to sweet Cali[C]fornia
And from [Am]time to time I pass on [G]by,
but I will nev[C]er stay

[Interlude 1]
[C][G][Em][D]
[G][Em][C][Em][C]

[Verse 3]
[G]Sure there are beautiful people,
in the city of [Em]lost angels
They're [D]living like they're kings and queens,
[Em]from some royal ag[D]e[G][C]
[G]But fortune and fame won't save you,
when Califor[Em]nia
Is wiped [D]out by the ring [Em]of fire or [D]a great [G]earth
[C]quake
