E(2) A F#
Sitting in a park in Paris France reading the news and it sure looks bad
B E(2)
They won't give peace a chance, that was just a dream some of us had
E(2) A F#
Stole a lot of lines to sing but I wouldn't want to stay here
B A
It's too old and cold and settled in its ways here
A (Asus4) E C#
Ah but California, California I'm coming home
A E B
I'm gonna see the folks I dig, I'll even kiss a sunset pig
Bsus4 E
California I'm coming home

[Intro]
E(3) EaddA E(3) Esus4 E Esus4 E


E(2) A F#
I met a redneck on a Grecian isle, we did the goat dance very well
B E(2)
He gave me back my smile but he kept my camera to sell
E(2) A F#
Oh the rogue, the red red rogue, he cooked good omelettes and stews
B A
And I might have stayed on with him there, but my heart cried out for you
A (Asus4) E C#
California, Oh California I'm coming home
A E B
Oh make me feel good rock and roll band, I'm your biggest fan
Bsus4 E
California I'm coming home RIFF


[Bridge]
E F# A E(2) B
Oh it gets so lonely When you're walking and the streets are full of strangers
F# A B D
All the news of home you read just give you the blues
B Bsus4 A Asus4 A B E [like intro] Esus4 E Esus4 E
Just give you the blues

E(2) A F#
So I bought me a ticket I caught a plane to Spain
B E(2)
Went to a party down a red dirt road
E(2) A F#
There were lots of pretty people there, reading Rolling Stone reading Vogue
B A
They said how long can you hang around, I said a week maybe two
Just until my skin turns brown and then I'm going home
A (Asus4) E C#
To California, California, I'm coming home
A E B
Oh, will you take me as I am, strung out on another man
Bsus4 E
California I'm coming home RIFF


[Bridge 2]
E F# A E(2) B
Oh it gets so lonely when you're walking and the streets are full of strangers
F# A E(2) B
All the news of home you read, more about the war and the bloody changes
F# A E(2)
Oh will you take me as I am, will you take me as I am
B F# A
Will you, will you take me as I am
E(2) B F# A E(2) B
