[Verse]
E Asus2 E Asus2
Lately, I've been low
Things been moving slow
Could not tell you why
Maybe too much paradise
[Pre-Chorus]
A (really let open high E string be heard)
Something came a-calling
B(pause) E Asus2 E Asus2
And I knew this time I had to go
[Chorus]
E Asus2 (the quick switch)
California
E
I don't even know you
A E Asus2
And you've taken me away from home
E Asus2 (the quick switch)
Old magnolia

I'll never get over you
A E Asus2
Feeling running straight to my bones
B A E Asus2
Someday I'll be coming home

Someday I'll be coming home
