[Am] Hey kids, [D] say, if you dare to [G] run far
I'll do something [E] that's not gonna change the [Am] weather
But [D] California's a powerful [Em] night, so stick around
[Am] You gotta [Bm] hear an active music, start a ball [C] of sound
[G] Say, if you're in the know, you haven't seen [Am] them yet
[G] Ooh, put [Am] the [G] subway down, [C] put the bandy in the air
[G] The wind is a wonderful, [Am] [G] old fanny, [Am] she's a red cane
[C] She's got electric [D] boots, I'm gonna have [Em] food
You know I'd rather [G] have a magazine, [C] no
[A#] Put the [G] fanny on the jack
[F#] [F] [F]
[G] [F] [G] [Am] Hey [D] kids, plug into the [G] great west, maybe they're [G#] blinded
But then it makes a [Am] midday, we [D] shall survive
Let us take [Em] ourselves along
We're [Am] gonna fly up every [Bm] side of the street
To find who's [C] right and who's wrong
[G] Oh, California's a powerful night, [Am] [Am] so [G] stick around
[C] You gotta hear an active music, start a ball of sound
Say,
