Intro F5

Verse 1
F5
Oh California, if there's one thing I like to see

      C5                        Bb5
It's miles of asphalt boiling under the sun

                                   F5
I'm rolling up my sleeves and I'll wait 


For the moon rise for any phase it's in

C5
Pray I see no black dogs running 

     Bb5 (then strum muted strings)
And drive all night till the early morning

Chorus
F5               Bb5             F5              C5
Steer with the memories that swim around my head

F5                 Bb5                 F5                    C5 
Some are foolish, some so wise, and some just better off dead

       Bb5    F5      C5  Bb5       F5
And I won't slow down

Verse 2
F5
Oh California. One thing that I'll see

      C5                         Bb5
It's miles of blacktop burning under the gun

                                F5
Running state to state and I'll wait 


For the sun rise and the calm before the storm

C5
Pray I see no black dogs running 

     Bb5 (then strum muted strings)
And drive all night till the break of dawn 

Chorus
F5                Bb5           F5               C5
Steer with the memories that swim around my head 

F5                 Bb5                  F5                    C5
Some are foolish, some are wise, and some just better off dead

       Bb5    F5     C5   Bb5    F5
And I won't slow down

Verse 3 
F5
Oh California. You're where I need to be 

      C5
I'm heading to your mountains
 
Bb5
Through your rivers, on to your sea 

          F5
And I'll make it only if I stay rolling 

     
From there don't care where I'm going
 
C5
Break for food, smoke, and fuel 

        Bb5 (then strum muted strings)
Come on 50 cent cup to burn up my throat

Chorus

Steer with the memories, that swim around my head.
