C                       F
Ran away from home when I was seventeen
C                     G
To be with you on the California coast
C                                    F
Drinking margaritas all night in the old cantina
C          G
Out on the California coast


[Chorus]
Bm
Don't think that I'm ungrateful
                  F#m
And don't look so morose
Em     A
Adios, adios

Bm
We never really made it baby
       F#m
But we came pretty close
Em     A
Adios, adios


[Verse]
C                        F
Going up north where the hills are winter green
C                         G
I got to leave you on the California coast
C                                     F
Going where the water's clear and the air is cleaner
C                   G
Than the California Coast


[Chorus]
Bm
Our dreams of endless summers
              F#m
Were just too grandiose
Em     A
Adios, adios


[Outro]
         Bm                 F#m
And I'll miss the blood red sunset
         Bm           G
But I'll miss you the most
Em     A 
Adios, adios
Em     A 
Adios, adios
Em     A 
Adios, adios
