[CHORUS]
[A]I've got friends in California

Who really care about me
And right now a friend is w[E]hat I need the m[A]ost
Somewh[E]ere out i[A]n California
[E]Is wh[D]ere I ou[A]ght to be

So I'll pack up my trouble
And t[E]ake 'em to the co[A]ast [Am]

[VERSE]
[A]This old town is gettin' colder
With w[B7]inter co[D]min' o[A]n
But it was just as cold b[E]ack in J[A]uly
[C]There ai[E]n't n[A]othin' here to hold me
With storm cl[D]ouds mo[E]vin' i[A]n
Lord k[Am]nows I need a friend and su[E]nny sk[A]ies
I've got s[D]ome cousins up near Frisco
T[A]hey've been on my mind
And my best friend's got a pl[E]ace in Mali[A]bu
I've got an o[D]ld flame in the desert liv[A]in' on the Falkland
I'd be better off with her t[E]hen here with y[A]ou

[Chorus/Outro]
[A]I've got friends in California

Who really care about me
Right now a friend is w[E]hat I need the m[A]ost

Somewhere out in California
Is wh[D]ere I ou[A]ght to be

So I'll pack up my trouble And take 'em to the coast
So I'll pack up my trouble A[E]nd take 'em to the c[A]oast
