Introduction:

                          F         A      Dm  
There's a place I know,
                          Bb  F            A  
Where the redwoods blow,
                          Dm                 F            C                      Bb  
Where the Colorado River feeds the sea,
                        Dm              C                                 F  
If you'd care to share it with me.
                          F         A         Dm  
There are wide blue skies,
                     Bb      F         A  
In your cloudless eyes,
                Dm                                 F                      C                      Bb  
And I think that California is what they see,
                        Dm                         C                            F  
Will you come to California with me?
                  F      A            Dm  
Oh the sun grows warm,
                  Bb                 F              A  
In the blue California dawn,
                Dm                                 F                              C                 Bb  
As it rises from the ocean like a burning tree,
                        Dm                         C                            F  
Will you come to California with me?
                     F         A            Dm  
And the moon glows pale,
             Bb         F            A  
As a great white whale,
                Dm                                    F                              C                      Bb  
As we sailed to Chattanooga on the Robert E. Lee,

Will you come to California with me?
                        F                    A      Dm  
Have you seen the Dow Jones?
                  Bb                 F              A  
Or the Monument Valley Stones?
                             Dm                                 F                              C                 Bb  
Where they buried all the giants after Wounded Knee,
                        G                            Bb                         F  
Will you come to California with me?
                     F                                    A                              Dm  
All the Presidents are smiling in a line,
                  Bb              F                                              A  
In the hills behind the Hollywood sign,
                        Dm                              F                      C         Bb  
Where it overlooks the Statue of Liberty,
                        G                            Bb                         F  
Will you come to California with me?
?
             F                         A         Dm  
If I stay here, I'll freeze,
                        Bb                         F                 A  
Will you come to California, please?
                        Dm                                 F              C                         Bb  
Will you do me this one favour before you leave...
          G                            Bb  
And come to California?

                     F              A      Dm  
All the dreams you killed,
                  Bb         F         A  
Do you dream them still? ?
                        Dm                            F                 C                    Bb  
Are they there in California? Wait and see,
          G                            Bb                         F  
And come to California with me.
                          Dm                            F                                    C            Bb  
And we'll cruise along Broadway in a 'Model T',
                        G                            Bb                         F  
When you come to California with me.
             Dm              F                                 C              Bb

I'll be brave, and you'll be free,

When you come to California with me.
