Neko Case – In California (Guitar)

D  D/C#   D/B     D/A        G    G/F#  Em  A
   In California, I dream of snow

D  D/C#        D/B    D/A  G         G/F#  Em  A
   And all the places we   used to go

         G             D    G   D
With the night falling down

         G             D     G  D
With the night falling down

        G           D      G              A             D     D/C#  D/B  D/A  G  G/F#  Em  A
Now I’m living in Koreatown waking to the sound of car alarms

D     D/C#        D/B         D/A         G    G/F#  Em  A
  I remember your face when I showed you the ticket

D               D/C#      D/B      D/A          G     G/F#  Em  A
  Said you were happy for me, your heart wasn’t in it

       G            D    G   D
Just a phone call away

            G          D    G   D
Now there’s nothing to say

       G         A          D     D
As the days roll by, disconnected

       G              A            D           C       Bm
In the land where the sun’s always shining I’m crying alone

    Bm/A       G            D   G   D
The palm trees laugh at me

        G            D                G
Another fool playing songs that don’t matter

   D          G       C         C/B  Am
To people who chatter endlessly

D  D/C#     D/B   D/A      G    G/F#  Em  A
    Another suicide on the 405

D  D/C#       D/B    D/A  G               G/F#  Em  A
    The Black Dahlia, she smiles and smiles

         G                   D
It’s the same old town that bled her dry

G               D           G
  One more starlet one more time

           D              G     D  D/C#  D/B  D/A  G  G/F#  Em  A
  Bound to make it do or die

G                D
  Take a walk to Bonnie Brae

G                    D         C
  Try and wash these dreams away

C           A                          D    D/C#  D/B  D/A  G  G/F#  Em  A D
They tell me L.A.’s beautiful when it rains
