Am D G 2x

[Verse 1]

G        Am                D           G
Got on a board a westbound seven forty seven
       Am             D              G
Didn't think before deciding what to do
         Am           D         G             Em
All that talk of opportunities, TV breaks and movies
     Am   D          G
Rang true, sure rang true.

[Chorus]

         Am             D            G    Em
Seems it never rains in Southern California
           Am               D              G   
Seems I've often heard that kind of talk before
         Am           D
It never rains in California
    G                 Em
But girls, don't they warn ya
   Am    D        G
It pours  man, it pours.

[Bridge]

       Am                  D
Out of work, I'm out of my head
               G
Out of self respect, I'm out of bread
          Am               D
I'm under loved, I'm under fed
           G    G7
I wanna go home
         Am           D
It never rains in California
    G                 Em
But girls, don't they warn ya
   Am    D        G
It pours  man, it pours.

[Verse 2]

         Am                  D             G
Will you tell the folks back home I nearly made it
    Am               D                 G
Had offers but don't know which one to take
             Am                D
Please don't tell them how you found me
      G                 Em
Don't tell them how you found me,
          Am    D          G
Give me a break, give me a break

[Chorus]

         Am             D            G    Em
Seems it never rains in Southern California
           Am               D              G   
Seems I've often heard that kind of talk before
         Am           D
It never rains in California
    G                 Em
But girls, don't they warn ya
   Am    D       G
It pours  man it pours.
