[G]
California, California, well I now understand you now and I love you more each day.
[C] California girl, [F] California girl, [Dm] you're the best thing that I've [C] seen in a while.
California girl, [F] California girl, [Dm] there must be something [C] magic in your smile.
[Dm] [C] Now when I came to this [F] California town, [Dm] I came [G] here to make the [C] big time.
And I tried so hard but [F] got no reward, then it seemed [G] like I was wasting [C] my time.
[Em] [E] I was kicking around [A] this [G] wholesome [F] town, trying to pick myself up instead [G] of going down.
[E] But something sure [Am] changed [G] when [F] I moved to [Dm] California.
Now it's looking [G] bright and [C] new.
California girl, [F] California girl, well it seemed [G] like I was wasting [C] my time.
But now I know you girl [F] and I love you girl, and [Dm] it seems like [C] California's all mine.

[E] I've been knocking on doors, [Am] trying to [G] sell [F] my song, [Dm] but I've been getting refused.
[G] Everywhere I've gone, [E] but something sure changed [Am] [G] when I [F] met you.
California, [Dm] now [G] it's looking bright and blue.
[C] California girl, [F] California girl, I don't [G] know how to say [C] what's in my mind.
But now I know you girl [F] and
[Dm] [G] California's [C] all mine.
[Dm] Well it feels like [F] California [G] is all mine.
