California Chords & Lyrics - Kenny Chesney

[G]INTR[D/F#]O [C] [G] [D/F#] [C]

[G]She lived at the [D/F#]end of a little dirt [Em]road, [C]
[G]In a house where [D/F#]secrets go un[Em]told. [C]
[G]Barefoot in a [D/F#]cotton dress,
[Em]Dark hair in a [C]tangled mess,
[G]And a head full of [D/F#]crazy [C]dreams.
[D]She'd say,

[G]I'm [D/F#]going to Cali[C]fornia,
[G]A place where the [D/F#]sun always [C]shines.
[G]Well I'm [D/F#]going to Cali[C]fornia,
And I'm[Am] leaving [D]everything [G]behind. [D/F#] [C]

[G]You can't help but [D/F#]feel just a little bit [Em]touched, [C]
[G]When your Daddy [D/F#]loves you a little too [Em]much. [C]
[G]You can wish on [D/F#]four-leaf clovers,
[Em]But all the fields have [C]been plowed over,
And there's[G] nothing left to [D/F#]do but fly a[C]way.
[D]She'd say,

[G]I'm [D/F#]going to Cali[C]fornia,
[G]A place where the [D/F#]sun always [C]shines.
[G]Well I'm [D/F#]going to Cali[C]fornia,
And I'm[Am] leaving [D]everything [G]behind.

The [Am]stars burn like [G]candles,
On that [C]two lane high[Am]way.[G]
She [Am]made a wish and [G]disappeared,
On her [D]18th birthday.

She'd say,

[G]I'm [D/F#]going to Cali[C]fornia,
[G]A place where the [D/F#]sun always [C]shines.
[G]Well I'm [D/F#]going to Cali[C]fornia,
And I'm[Am] leaving [D]everything [G]behind.

[G]INST[D/F#]RUMENTA[C]L [G] [D/F#] [C]


[G]I'm [D/F#]going to Cali[C]fornia,
And I'm [Am]leaving [D]everything be[G]hind.[D/F#] [C] [G] [D/F#] [C]
Oh, Cali[G]forni[D/F#]a..... [C] [G] [D/F#]
