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.
 
 
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.
 
 
Bridge:
F#m
Golden State, I'm back in the Golden State,
C#m
Golden State of mind.
F#m
Golden State, I'm back in the Golden State,
C#m
Golden State of mind.
 
 
F#m  C#m  x 2
 
 
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  E Bm C#
In California,   in California.
 
 
F#m      E    Bm       C#
    Walk, walk, walk away.
F#m      E    Bm       C#
    Walk, walk, walk away.
 
 
F#m  E  Bm  C#
 
 
     F#m
I remember I was in the tanning salon,
        Bm
When I heard that River Phoenix was gone.
