INTRO
G+G D/F#D/F# E minorEm C majorC
She lived at the end of a little dirt road,
G+G D/F#D/F# E minorEm C majorC
In a house where secrets go untold.
G+G D/F#D/F#
Barefoot in a cotton dress,
E minorEm C majorC
Dark hair in a tangled mess,
G+G D/F#D/F# C majorC
And a head full of crazy dreams.
D MajorD
She'd say,
G+G D/F#D/F# C majorC
I'm going to California,
G+G D/F#D/F# C majorC
A augmentedA place where the sun always shines.
G+G D/F#D/F# C majorC

A minorAm D MajorD G+G D/F#D/F# C majorC
And I'm leaving everything behind.
G+G D/F#D/F# E minorEm C majorC
You can't help but feel just a little bit touched,
G+G D/F#D/F# E minorEm C majorC
When your Daddy loves you a little too much.
G+G D/F#D/F#
You can wish on four-leaf clovers,
E minorEm C majorC
But all the fields have been plowed over,
G+G D/F#D/F# C majorC
And there's nothing left to do but fly away.
D MajorD
She'd say,
G+G D/F#D/F# C majorC

A augmentedA place where the sun always shines.
G+G D/F#D/F# C majorC
Well I'm going to California,
A minorAm D MajorD G+G
And I'm leaving everything behind.
A minorAm G+G
The stars burn like candles,
C majorC A minorAm G+G
On that two lane highway.
A minorAm G+G
She made a wish and disappeared,
D MajorD
On her 18th birthday.
