-----------------

A really beautiful song from a really beautiful album. Well, I think some
pieces of this are not right, but altogether, it works pretty nice. There is
also some plucking in this song that I didn't write down, but strumming the 
chords works fine. I'm not sure about some names of the chords. And I'm also 
not sure about the bridge part. Feel free to correct me.

D                             Em9
I thought I'd never reach the water

Drinking only golden promises

And white lines in my eyes

Oh California

          Dii                        D*
Well it's not like before but we can still pretend


This should be it. The same chords are used through the whole song. 
I think the bridge uses the Chorus chords, but I'm a bit unsure about this.
