Verse 1
C F G
I tell you what I'm gonna do
I'm gonna lighten up
I'm gonna throw a box of books and my beloved guitar
and put them in the back of my truck
Try my luck in
Chorus (intro riff)
California 4x
Verse 2
Gonna stay away from LA
Stayin far away from there
Going north of San Fransisco
Into the cleaner air
Gonna get a little land from the money I saved
Buy an old house that I can work on
where the next nearest neighbor lives miles away
I'll never have to mow the lawn, right on

This is isnt entirely correct. The intro riff is a little off
and the outro actually differs form the intro riff. I dont have
it all figured out exactly yet but this is definetely enough for
you to "fake it."
Please send any comments, corrections, questions, and other such
