Key A no capo [Intro] A A7 A G [Verse 1]
A
It's been fifteen years now since the wine took hold of me

        D                                                   A
And the call of the wild it came so strong I just had to be free

                                                   D
Now I'm so tired of railroad tracks hobo camps and streams

               E7                    A      A7
And I wanna go back to my California dreams
[Verse 2]
A
It seems like only yesterday I had such big plans

D                                                     A
California sunshine Hollywood and girls money in both hands

                                                                    D
But sittin' here in the cold night air I hear that lonesome whistle scream

               E7                    A     A7
I'll never get back to my California dreams
[Bridge]
         D                                                A
That ol' midnight train is a flyin' low headin' for New Orleans

D                                           A
It's so cold standin' here I know what that means

  D                                 A               F#7
Tomorrow I'll be in Dixie where the soft warm winds blow

B7                                 E                  E7
Cause a hobo just don't care which way that ol' train goes
[Outro]
      A                                                        D
Cause one of these days I'll get to LA when I do boys watch my steam

               E7                    A     A7
Oh I gotta get back to my California dreams

   E7                A    A7   A   G
Oh California here I come
