California Dreaming


                   Am         G          F       G      Esus4                  E     F
All the leaves are brown                 and the sky is gray
                     (All the leaves are brown)              (and the skies are grey ey)
                 C           E     Am            F        Esus4               E
I've been for a walk                        on a winter's day
                 (I've been for a wa-a-a-alk)                (On a winter's day)
                 Am         G        F            G      Esus4             E
I'd be safe and warm                         if I was in L.A.
                   (I'll be safe and warm)                    (If I was in L.A.)
          Am             G      F            G               Esus4
California dreamin'                       on such a winter's da-a-a-a-a-ay
                    (California dreamin)
 


                   Am  G  F          G        Esus4  E
Stopped in to a church     I passed along the way
       F              C    E Am       F       Esus4  E
Well I got down on my knees   and I pretend to pray
  E                               Am  G  F
You know the preacher liked the cold
              G      Esus4  E
He knows I'm gonna stay
           Am  G   F   G               Esus4  E
California dreamin' on such a winter's day
