[Verse 1]
A Bm
It's a 3 day drive if she drives all night
D A
Says she's leavin' at the crack of dawn
A Bm
Well she might still be lyin' here with me
D A
But in her heart she's already gone
A Bm
Already packed up, the Altima's gassed up
D A
She's done put the map up there on the dash
A Bm
I'm all tore up just tryin' to man up
D A
Damnin' these tears up but can't hold 'em back
[Chorus]
A
Cause she's in love with California
Bm
And that west coast sunshine dream
D
These ain't no Hollywoods
E A Asus4 A
And these hills ain't Beverly
A
Ain't no beaches on these backroads
Bm
No sunset on the boulevard
[Próxima Parte]
D E
She's in love with California
A Asus4 A
And breakin' my heart
[Verse 2]
A Bm
Got a waitress job waitin' in an ihop
D A
Throw a rock and hit universal city
A Bm
Got a glamour shot in her hip pocket
D A
Hopin' somebody'll think she's pretty
A Bm
By this time tomorrow she'll hit Colorado
D A
I'll be drownin' my sorrow in a bottle of Beam
A Bm
Before she hits flagstaff maybe she'll backtrack
D A
But I wouldn't bet that if I was me
[Chorus]
[Próxima Parte]
D E
She's in love with California
A Asus4 A
And breakin' my heart
[Bridge]
Bm
Well she was all mine
D
Now it's go time
[Chorus]
[Próxima Parte]
D E
She's in love with California
A Asus4 A
And breakin' my heart
