I think it`s in E (but I don`t recall off hand - anyway that`s how I`m
giving the chords. Feel free to correct it, anyone.)


Title: California Song
Band: Mountain Goats

E A B
I know you see mars in the sky tonight
E A B
and I know you can see venus rising and veering off to the right.
E
can you see that young star ahead?
A B
it`s the one that designed my undoing.
E A B
I know that in california the waves break on the beach.
E A
and I know that the foam on the breaking waves
B
is as white as household bleach.
E
but if you could see that particular white right now
A B
it`s the color of the young star coming on down.
E
I`ve got joy joy joy in my soul tonight
A B E
I`ve got joy joy joy in my arms alright. alright.
A
although you treat me badly,
B
I love you madly.
E A B
you really got a hold on me.
E A B
you really got a hold on me.
E
All right.
