Lyrics

[Verse 1]
D            D                          G
 Workin' all day and the sun don't shine
                A                         D
Trying to get by and I'm just killing time
                                            G
I feel the rain fall the whole night through
              Em A           D
Far away from you California blue
               G
California blue

[Bridge]
              D
Dreaming all alone
                A
Nothing else to do
          D
California blue
               G
Everyday I pray
              D
I'll be on my way
                A
Saving love for you
           D
California blue

[Chorus]
A                       D
One sunny day, I'll get back again
G            A         D
Somehow, someway but I don't know when
           A                D
California blue, California blue

[Verse 2]
          D                       G
Living my life with you on my mind
            A                            D
Thinking of things that I left far behind
                                    G
It's been so long doing all I can do
               Em A           D
To get back to you California blue
               G
California blue

[Bridge]
              D
Dreaming all alone
                A
Nothing else to do
          D
California blue
               G
Everyday I pray
                 D
I'll be on my way
                A
Saving love for you
           D
California blue

[Chorus]
A                       D
One sunny day, I'll get back again
G            A         D
Somehow, someway but I don't know when
           A                D
California blue, California blue

[Outro]
             Em   A           D
Still missing  you California blue
             Em   A           D
Still missing  you California blue
              Em A           D
Still missing you California blue
