Verse 
E                            C#m7            Bsus4 
Hey there, California, I can hear you when I wake up 
       E                            C#m7       Bsus4        E 
In the distance like the ocean, you calling me back to your side 
C#m7       Bsus4         E        C#m7   Bsus4          E         C#m7 Bsus4 
Holding my breath in the night, I listen again for your song 

Verse 
E                                 C#m7            Bsus4 
At the table I am sitting, I know nothing but the meaning 
       E                         C#m7       Bsus4       E 
Of the ones that I am missing, I hold on to each little time 
C#m7      Bsus4         E       C#m7   Bsus4          E         C#m7 Bsus4 
You say a name and it’s mine, I listen again for your song 

Verse 
     E                      C#m7                Bsus4 
I am open, I am ready, I am forging through the mornings 
     E                          C#m7         Bsus4    E 
Am I broken or unyielding, am I some kind of fumbling light 
C#m7      Bsus4          E        C#m7   Bsus4          E         C#m7 Bsus4 
Perfectly strung in your sight, I listen again for your song 

Bridge 
Aadd9                              Bsus4            Aadd9              Bsus4 
       And in the meantime I’ll be alright, I’ll be alright, I will be fine 

Verse 
E                            C#m7            Bsus4 
Hey there, California, I can hear you when I wake up 
       E                            C#m7       Bsus4        E 
In the distance like the ocean, you calling me back to your side 
C#m7       Bsus4         E        C#m7   Bsus4          E 
Holding my breath in the night, I listen again for your song
