"California"
Belinda Carlisle
Trancribbed by ViviEatWorld
Intro: F#m
F#m
I remember I was in the tanning salon,
Bm
When I heard that River Phoenix was gone.
E
They say that only the good die young,
F#m
But that ain't true where I come from:
Bm C# F#m
California, California.
Chorus:
F#m E Bm C#
It took a lot for me to say,
F#m E Bm C#
I wanna walk away L.A.,
F#m E Bm
From the sharks and the chardonnay,
C# F#m E Bm C# F#m
In California, in California.
F#m
Four in the morning, we were in our beds,
Bm
The swaying palm trees above our heads
E
Woke up to the primal rumbling sound,
F#m
When the Northridge quake ripped open the ground,
Bm C# F#m
California, California.
