same chords as intro, if you listen to the song it's easy; to make it easier you can also
play full chords, or play an arpeggio by yourself...I think that covering a song doesn't
means copy it!

  Am             Em

E|---------------------|
B|------------1--------|
G|----2---2-----2---0--|
D|--2---2---2----------|
A|----------------2----|

every tired second


  Am             Em

E|---------------------|
B|------------1--------|
G|----2---2-----2---0--|
D|--2---2---2----------|
A|----------------2----|

every heavy page

they almost turn to rage

        [bass coming]

"i felt that i was draining, i should have been happy
and no one should need nothing, you never needed me"

PD-C HORUS

C                          Em

        and it's always raining

C                          Em

        and it's always raining


======
CHORUS repeat twice
======

   G     Dsus4 F#m   F

E|--5-----5-----2-----1---|
B|--5-----5-----2-----1---|
G|--6-----7-----2-----2---|
D|--7-----7-----4-----3---|
A|--7-----5-----4-----3---|
E|--5-----5-----2-----1---|

The rythm can be got listening to the song;Dsus4 can also be played (557955) or instead
you can play a Dsus2 (xx00230).
The first strum of each chord shoukd be sharpened on first string (E).

"californian girlfriend, i am calling from the end, californian girlfriend, things will fall apart again"

FULL LYRICS

to-roo to-too to-too too...

every tired second, every heavy page
they fold into a nightmare, they almost turn to rage
i felt that i was draining, i should have been happy
and no one should need nothing, you never needed me

and it's always raining, and it's always raining

californian girlfriend, i am calling from the end
californian girlfriend, things will fall apart again
californian girlfriend, i am calling from the end
californian girlfriend, things will fall apart again

to-roo to-too to-too too...

everything you gave me, everything you know
it's my newest form of torture, my newest broken bow
i'm running out of fortune, running out of the pain
and i benefit from sadness and sadness cools my brain

californian girlfriend, i am calling from the end
californian girlfriend, things will fall apart again
californian girlfriend, i am calling from the end
californian girlfriend, things will fall apart again

and it's always raining, and it's always raining


californian girlfriend, i am calling from the end
californian girlfriend, things will fall apart again
californian girlfriend, i am calling from the end
californian girlfriend, things will fall apart again
californian girlfriend, i am calling from the end
californian girlfriend, things will fall apart again
californian girlfrieeeeee-e-e-e-e-eee-eend
