Got on [Am]board a [D]west bound 747[G]
Didn’t [Am]think before [D]decidin’ what to do[G]
All that [Am]talk of opportunity[D], [G]T.V. breaks and [Em]movies
Ring [Am]true, [D]sure rang [G]true
Seems it [Am]never rains in [D]southern [G]California[Em]
Seems I’ve [Am]often heard that [D]kind of talk [G]before
It never [Am]rains in [D]California, but [G]girl, don’t they [Em]warn ya
But it [Am]pours, [D]man it pours[G]
I’m out of [Am]work, I’m outta my [D]head
Out of self-respect[G], I’m out of bread[Em]
I’m underloved[Am] and underfed[D]
I wanna go [G]home
It [Am]never rains in [D]California,
But [G]girl, don’t they warn[Em] ya
But it [Am]pours, [D]man it pours[G]

Had [Am]offers, but don’t [D]know which one to [G]take
Please don’t [Am]tell ’em how you [F]
found me, don’t [G]tell ’em how you found[Em] me
Gimme a [Am]break,[D] give me a [D]break
Seems it [Am]never rains in [D]southern [G]California[Em]
Seems I’ve [Am]often heard that [D]kind of talk before[G]
It never [Am]rains in [D]California, but [G]girl, don’t they warn[Em] ya
But it [Am]pours, [D]man it pours[G]
