[Verse]
             D     G   D
There's some boys  I   know

    D         Am7      G
Who play that rock and roll

        D          G      D
They've slept on a lot of floors 

            D    Am7   G
To get that California Soul

                 D  Am7     G
They've got that California Soul


[see chords above]
There's a girl I know
That I don't really know
She helps me face the time
When there is trouble on my mind
When my mind is on my soul

       G  Gadd9/F#  E     A    G      Db / D (slide)
All my problems     are gold plated

       G  Gadd9/F#  E     A    G      Db / D (slide)
All my bottoms      exaggerated

       G  Gadd9/F#  E     A    G      
My connections      incarcerated

      D          G           D    C  
And I don't know when but my genius

[Bridge] 

G                   D          G           A
Now if time makes a difference while we're gone

G                 D
Just forget that reference

                G                A
You've probably never heard that song


[Repeat Intro Riff / Lead Guitar Riff]


      D    G       D     
See I just have to touch 

D    Am7     G
Everything I see

D       G     D
Looking isn't good 

D   Am7    G
Enough for me

         D    Am7        G
It's not good enough for me


    D         G     D
I'm searching for a place 

       D     Am7     G  
That's empty and its free

      D                     Am7         G
And I do believe I will ask you to come with me
