  • Difficulty: Beginner
Key: Em

Intro:

Em  D  Cmaj7    Em  D  Cmaj7


Verse 1:
           Em               D
She had to go and chase her dreams
         C
It turns out it wasn't me
         Em             D
She took off to that sunset
      C
Ain't heard a word from her since
                       Em
She's somewhere on the west coast
                      D
"Fleetwood  " in her headphones
                    C
Running 'round them hills in Hollywood
                  Em
Probably got some new friends
                 D
Boxed up all her boots and
        C
I got a feeling she's gone for good

Chorus:
Em D          C
Ooh, hey, California
                 Em                D                    C
Tell me why your sunshine went and stole mine away from me
Em D          C
Ooh, hey, California
                  Em                D                 C
Let her know it's pouring more than rain here in Tennessee
                              Em  D  Cmaj7
And I'm drowning in her memory
                      Em D Cmaj7
Drowning in her memory


Verse 2:
               Em                 D
She's on the 101 under clear blue skies
               C
I'm drinkin' 101 under neon lights
          Em             D
I bet her skin is Venice-gold
     C
This Sumner County summer's never felt this cold


Chorus:
Em D          C
Ooh, hey, California
                 Em                D                    C
Tell me why your sunshine went and stole mine away from me
Em D          C
Ooh, hey, California
                  Em                D                 C
Let her know it's pouring more than rain here in Tennessee
                            Em  D  Cmaj7
And I'm drowning in her memory

"Fleetwood  " in her headphones
                    C
Running 'round them hills in Hollywood
                  Em

                            Em  D  Cmaj7
And I'm drowning in her memory
                         Em  D  Cmaj7
Just drowning in her memory
