Going To California Lyrics

He was (G)never there when needed

and (C)oh who much she (Am)pleaded

Saying (G)darling wont you stay home just one (D)time

He'd just (G)smile and (C)say I'm (G)sorry

But (C)there's no need to (Am)worry

Just gonna (G)meet some (C)army (G)buddies

Drink some beer and (D7)fight the (G)war.

In the (G)kitchen making wishes

As she (C)tidies up the (Am)dishes

On an(G)other lonely weekend

And the wine she drank a(D7)lone

And the (G)nights they (C)hold no (G)pity

In the (C)cold of New York (Am)city

As she (G)waits there (C)in the (G)darkness

To hear his key turn (D7)in the (G)door

She said I'm (D)going to Cali(D7)fornia

To taste the (C)sunshine and the (G)wine

Sit be(C)side the rolling (G)ocean

And slowly pass the (D7)time

Reading (G)books and (C)old love (G)stories

And for(C)get about my (Am)worries

And (G)maybe (C)who knows (G)maybe

We'll (D)meet a(D7)gain some(G)time.

Change of key! Then one (C)night he came home sober

With a (F)longing just to (Dm)hold her

When he (C)found the note she'd )written

Waiting by the tele(G)phone

And she (C)said ''I'll a(F)lways (C)love you

And (F)never will for(Dm)get you

Bit I (C)just can't (F)take this (C)lonely (G7)feeling
any(C)more''

Now the (C)nights are cold and lonely

And he (F)sits and watches (Dm)TV

Drinking (C)beer and chasing whiskey

Wondering where it all went (G)wrong

And his (C)eyes are (F)tired and (C)burning

From the (F)dreams that keet re(Dm)turning

And (C)all his (F)yester(C)days they (G7)wont leave him
a(C)lone

She said I'm (G)going to Cali(G7)fornia

To taste the (F)sunshine and the (C)wine

Sit be(F)side the rolling (C)ocean

And slowly pass the (G7)time

Reading (C)books and (F)old love (C)stories

And for(F)get about my (Dm)worries

And (C)maybe (F)who knows (C)maybe

We'll (G)meet a(G7)gain some(C)time.
