Josh Ritter - California guitar chord

California

By Josh Ritter

from the 2003 album "Hello Starling"

Capo on 2

C Dm

going out to California

G C C/B Am

gonna let the water warm my clothes

Dm

im alone but im not lonely

G G7 Am

gonna trade the weather for the Western coast

Dm

don't cry

G

i'll be back and i'll

C C/B Am

bring the sun to shine

Dm

in your eyes

G G7

on your shoulders

sunset boulevard will strip for money

mulholland is a long drag for the lonely hearts

down along the imperial valley

runs a river of homelessness and cinema stars

don't say

the trip's been done

a hundred thousand times

cause this one

is mine

so i will work at what work finds me

and i will take what comfort i can get

i'll be back when im good and ready

California doesn't seem to think im ready yet

it's alright

i'll be back and i'll

bring the sun to shine

in your eyes

on your shoulders
