intro end

G5                       C5                  
How're you doin' out in California
G5                       C5                  
Now that you've made the grade?
G5                       C5                  
Is there a chance you'd think of me
     C5        D5      A5     C5  D5
And all the things we did together?


E5              (EbGB )
    Livin' out in California
G5                     F#5
    Seems to suit you well
C5                       B5
    But my news is all second hand
             A5             D5
    So it's hard for me to tell


How're you doin' out in California
Now that you've got it made?
You must be glad you made the break
But how I wish you'd stayed

Livin' out in California
Seems to suit you well
But my news is all second hand
So it's hard for me to tell

One day I'll make it out to California
See if it's what it seems
I've been there many times before
But only in my dreams

(INSTRUMENTAL)

One day I'll make it out to California
See if it's what it seems
I've been there many times before 
But only in my dreams

Oh, it could be the money
It could be the sun
Something's keeping you away from me
California look what you've done
Oh, oh
