Psychic spies from China
Try to steal your mind's elation
Little girls from Sweden
Dream of silver screen quotations
And if you want these kind of dreams
Its Californication
It's the edge of the world
And all of western civilization
The sun may rise in the east
At least it settles in a final location
It's understood that Hollywood
Sells Californication
Pay your surgeon very well
To break the spell of aging
Celebrity skin is this your chin
Or is it war your waging
The first born unicorn
Hard core soft porn
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
Marry me girl be the fairy to my world
Be my very own constellation
A teenage bride with a baby inside
Getting high on information
And buy me a star on the boulevard
It's Californication
Space may be the final frontier
But it's made in a Hollywood basement
And Cobain can you hear the spheres
Singin' songs of station to station
And Alderon's not far away
It's Californication
Born and raised by those who praise
Control of population
Everybody's been there
And I don't mean on vacation
The first born unicorn
Hard core soft porn
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
Destruction leads to a very rough road
But it also breeds creation
And earthquakes are to a girl's guitar
Their just another good vibration
And tidal waves couldn't save the world
From Californication
Pay your surgeon very well
To break the spell of aging
Sicker then the rest
There is no test
For this is what you're craving
The first born unicorn
Hard core soft porn
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication

Psychic spies from China
Try to steal your mind's elation
Little girls from Sweden
Dream of silver screen quotations
And if you want these kind of dreams
Its Californication
It's the edge of the world
And all of western civilization
The sun may rise in the east
At least it settles in a final location
It's understood that Hollywood
Sells Californication
Pay your surgeon very well
To break the spell of aging
Celebrity skin is this your chin
Or is it war your waging
The first born unicorn
Hard core soft porn
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
Marry me girl be the fairy to my world
Be my very own constellation
A teenage bride with a baby inside
Getting high on information
And buy me a star on the boulevard
It's Californication
Space may be the final frontier
But it's made in a Hollywood basement
And Cobain can you hear the spheres
Singin' songs of station to station
And Alderon's not far away
It's Californication
Born and raised by those who praise
Control of population
Everybody's been there
And I don't mean on vacation
The first born unicorn
Hard core soft porn
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
Destruction leads to a very rough road
But it also breeds creation
And earthquakes are to a girl's guitar
Their just another good vibration
And tidal waves couldn't save the world
From Californication
Pay your surgeon very well
To break the spell of aging
Sicker then the rest
There is no test
For this is what you're craving
The first born unicorn
Hard core soft porn
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication

Pre-Chorus: Chords x6
Chorus: Chords x2
Psychic spies from China
Try to steal your mind's elation
Little girls from Sweden
Dream of silver screen quotations
And if you want these kind of dreams
Its Californication
It's the edge of the world
And all of western civilization
The sun may rise in the east
At least it settles in a final location
It's understood that Hollywood
Sells Californication
Pay your surgeon very well
To break the spell of aging
Celebrity skin is this your chin
Or is it war your waging
The first born unicorn
Hard core soft porn
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
Marry me girl be the fairy to my world
Be my very own constellation
A teenage bride with a baby inside
Getting high on information
And buy me a star on the boulevard
It's Californication
Space may be the final frontier
But it's made in a Hollywood basement
And Cobain can you hear the spheres
Singin' songs of station to station
And Alderon's not far away
It's Californication
Born and raised by those who praise
Control of population
Everybody's been there
And I don't mean on vacation
The first born unicorn
Hard core soft porn
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
Destruction leads to a very rough road
But it also breeds creation
And earthquakes are to a girl's guitar
Their just another good vibration
And tidal waves couldn't save the world
From Californication
Pay your surgeon very well
To break the spell of aging
Sicker then the rest
There is no test
For this is what you're craving
The first born unicorn
Hard core soft porn
Dream of Californication

this bit returns to picking.
Am
Destruction leads to a very rough road
F
But it also breeds creation
Am
And earthquakes are to a girl's guitar
F
They're just another good vibration
C
And tidal waves couldn't save the world
F
From californication
Am
Pay your surgeon very well
F
To break the spell of aging
Am
Sicker than the rest There is no test
F
But this is what your craving

Psychic spies from China
Try to steal your mind's elation
Little girls from Sweden
Dream of silver screen quotations
And if you want these kind of dreams
Its Californication
It's the edge of the world
And all of western civilization
The sun may rise in the east
At least it settles in a final location
It's understood that Hollywood
Sells Californication
Pay your surgeon very well
To break the spell of aging
Celebrity skin is this your chin
Or is it war your waging
The first born unicorn
Hard core soft porn
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
Marry me girl be the fairy to my world
Be my very own constellation
A teenage bride with a baby inside
Getting high on information
And buy me a star on the boulevard
It's Californication
Space may be the final frontier
But it's made in a Hollywood basement
And Cobain can you hear the spheres
Singin' songs of station to station
And Alderon's not far away
It's Californication
Born and raised by those who praise
Control of population
Everybody's been there
And I don't mean on vacation
The first born unicorn
Hard core soft porn
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
Destruction leads to a very rough road
But it also breeds creation
And earthquakes are to a girl's guitar
Their just another good vibration
And tidal waves couldn't save the world
From Californication
Pay your surgeon very well
To break the spell of aging
Sicker then the rest
There is no test
For this is what you're craving
The first born unicorn
Hard core soft porn
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
