LA MI LA MI LA MI FA#madd11 SI
California, California, You're such a wonder that I think I'll stay in bed
LA MI LA MI LA MI FA#madd11 SI
Big time rollers, Part-time models, so much to plunder that I think I'll sleep instead
FA#maj
I don't know this sea of neon, thousand surfers, whiffs of freon
SI LA MI
and big nights back east with Rhoda
LA MI LA MI SI
California please
There's a moment I've been saving a kind of crucifix around this munchkin land
Up north Freezing, little me drooling, that's entertainment's on at eight come on ginger slam
I don't know this sea of neon, thousand surfers, whiffs of freon
and my new grandma Bea Arthur
come on over
FA# SI FA# SI FA#
Ain't it a shame that at the top peanut butter and jam they serve you?
SI FA# SI LA
Ain't it a shame that at the top still those soft skin boys can bruise you
MI FA# SI
yes, I fell for a streaker, oh no.
(solo here---I'm not that good--but they are the same chords as the verse)
I don't know this sea of neon, thousand surfers, whiffs of freon...
Ain't it a shame that all the world can't enjoy your mad traditions?
Ain't it a shame that all the world don't got keys to their own ignitions
life is the longest death in California
LA MI LA MI FA#madd11 SI
You're such a wonder that I think I'll stay in bed
So much to plunder that I think I'll sleep instead
You're such a wonder that I think I'll stay in bed
LA MI FA# SI LA MI
So much to plunder that I think I'll sleep instead...
