[B]
[C#] [F#]
[C#] [F#] Sitting by them [B] Paris friends
And reading them [G#] some Sherlock's bag
They won't give me a [C#] chance
It was just a [F#] dream someone's had
Still a lot [B] of land to see
But I [G#] wanna wanna stay here
It's too [C#] old and cold
And settling in [B] Swayze
Oh California Oh [F#] California
I'm coming [D#] home Oh
[B] I'm gonna see the [F#] folks I dig
I'll even [C#] kiss the sunset deep
California [F#] I'm coming home
[G#m]
[C#] [F#]
I met a René [B] Conigrès tonight
He made that gold dance [G#] very well
He gave me back my [C#] spine
But he kept my camera [F#] cell
Oh Renault, the [B] red Renault
He's got good [G#] omelettes and stews
But I don't sit home with him
But [C#] my heart cried out for [B] you
Oh California [F#] Oh California
I'm [D#] coming home
[B] You wanna meet me baby yes I [F#] am
Crying over [C#] another man
[F#] California I'm coming home
[G#m]
[C#] [F#]
No it gets [G#] so lonely
[B] When you're [F#] walking
And the streets are full [C#] of strangers
All the [G#] news of home [D#] [B] you read
Yes [G#] Camila Blue
[E] [C#] Yes Camila Blue
[B] So [C#] [F#]
I bought a ticket
I [B] got a plane to Spain
Went to a party [G#] down Reddard Road
There were lots of pretty people [C#] there
Reading Rolling [F#] Stone, reading Vogue
Said [B] I'd like a year around
I said [G#] it would be maybe two
It's until [C#] my skin turns brown
Then I'm going [B] home Oh California Oh [F#] California
I'm [D#] coming home
[B] Will you take me [F#] as I am
Strung out over [C#] another man
California [F#] I'm coming home

And the bloody [C#] changes
