G                                              D7                                      F                         C  
My drifting memory goes back to the spring of '43
             G                                                                            D7  
When I was just a child in momma's arms
        G                                         D7                                              F                                         C  
My daddy plowed the ground and promised someday we would leave
             G                                              D7                 G  
This run-down mortgaged Oklahoma farm
D7                                                                              C                              G  
Then one night I heard my daddy saying to my momma
A7                                                                                    D7  
That he'd finally saved enough to go
G                         D7                                    F                              C  
California was his dream a paradise for he had seen

California Cottonfields
                C                                         D7                                         C                                      G  
Where labor camps were filled with weary men with broken dreams

As close to wealth as daddy ever came
                                                        D7                                    F              C  
Nearly everything we had was sold or left behind
             G                                                                                                    D7  
From my daddy's plow to the soup that momma canned
             G                                            D7                                                 F                                 C  
Some folks came to say farewell or see what all we had to sell
             G                                              D7                      G  
Some just came to shake my daddy's hand
D7                                                                                 C                         G  
That model A was loaded down and California bound
A7                                                                                 D7  
A change of luck was just 4 days away
G                                                 D7                                    F                              C  
But the only change that I remember seeing in my daddy
G                                                         D7                                      G  
Was when his dark hair turned to silver gray
D7                                                                              C                              G  
Then one night I heard my daddy saying to my momma
A7                                                                                    D7  
That he'd finally saved enough to go
G                         D7                                    F                              C  
California was his dream a paradise for he had seen
