I think it's in E (but I don't recall off hand - anyway that's how I'm

giving the chords.  Feel free to correct it, anyone.)

Title:  California Song

Band:   Mountain Goats

E                          A     B

I know you see mars in the sky tonight

E                                   A                       B

and I know you can see venus rising  and veering off to the right.

        E

can you see that young star ahead?

         A                      B

it's the one that designed my undoing.

E                             A                  B

I know that in california the waves break on the beach.

E                                        A

and I know that the foam on the breaking waves

               B

is as white as household bleach.

                 E

but if you could see that particular white right now

         A                                 B

it's the color of the young star coming on down.

         E

I've got joy joy joy in my soul tonight

         A                 B             E

I've got joy joy joy in my arms alright. alright.

                      A

although you treat me badly,

           B

I love you madly.

E                A       B

you really got a hold on me.

E                A       B

you really got a hold on me.

    E

All right.
