Got on board a westbound seven forty seven 
        D5                   G5                  C5 
Didn't think before deciding what to do 
           D5                   G5         C5                   A5 
Ooh, the talk of opportunities, TV breaks and movies 
     D5     G5        C5 
Rang true, sure rang true 
 
 
                D5                G5                 C5 
Seems it never rains in southern California 
                  D5                    G5                C5 
Seems I've often heard that kind of talk before 
             D5             G5            C5                A5 
It never rains in California, but girl don't they warn ya 
   D5     G5      C5 
It pours, man it pours

Out of work, I'm out of my head 
                  C5 
Out of self respect, I'm out of bread 
          D5                              G5                C5 
I'm underclothed I'm underfed, I wanna go home 
          D5           G5                    C5              A5

Well you tell the folks back home I nearly made it 
     D5                     G5                          C5 
Had offers but don't know which one to take 
                   D5                     G5 
Please don't tell 'em how you found me 
         C5                      A5 
Don't tell 'em how you found me 
                  D5       G5        C5 
Gimme a break, give me a break
