G 


[Verse 1]

G                
Wouldn't hold you back
G               
No, I never would do that
G                              C
That don't mean I wanted you to go
G                 
Playing dives on weekends
G                 
Was a slow ride to a dead end
G                                 C
You headed west to find your pot of gold
C           D
And I hope you do
D          C
But if you don't

[Chorus]
 
G                  C                
If you're feeling cold in California
G                                  C     
Those L.A. stars just don't shine bright enough for you
Em             D               C          G
The snow back home ain't the only thing still falling
F                                    C
I still remember how I used to warm you
C                    G
If you're cold in California


[Verse 2]
 
G                 
Went out with a friend
G                 
Of a friend, but that just ended
G                                C
With me finding myself another friend
G                 
I've got a soft spot for those
G                 
With the wind in their souls
G                                C
Ain't it funny what I love’s what made you go?
C         D
I don't blame you
D                  C
And I wouldn't change you
 

[Chorus] 
x 2

G                  C                
If you're feeling cold in California
G                                  C     
Those L.A. stars just don't shine bright enough for you
Em             D               C          G
The snow back home ain't the only thing still falling
F                                    C
I still remember how I used to warm you
C                    G
If you're cold in California
