[Verse 1]
F# G#m
No I don't think it's odd to stand before god
C#7 Cb F#
And solemnly swear when there's love in the air
F# G#m
And I don't think it's weird when the one thing you fear
C#7 Cb F# F#m7
Is losing the one thing that's holding you dear
[Chorus]
Cb C#7
Well I don't think it's strange, I don't think it's insane
G#
It turns the world around
C#7
While the birds keep singing, and the bells keep ringin',
And the heart keeps bringin' you home
F# Cb F#
To California, where the warm sun shines
Cb F#
California, hear the windblown chimes
/G G#m C#7 F#
Californ-i-a, though you're far away, your love is here today
F# /D# /Fb /F
[Verse 2]
F# G#m
True love in you heart, like a flame in the dark
C#7 Cb F#
May you have, may you hold, 'til death do you part
F# G#m
'Cause two of a kind, it ain't easy to find
C#7 Cb F# F#m7
Comin' out of the blue, being lead by the blind
[Chorus]
Cb C#7
It don't take much to see that what's meant to be
G#
Is right in front of me
C#7
And the birds keep singing, and the bells keep ringin',
And the heart keeps bringin' you home
F# Cb F#
To California, where the warm sun shines
Cb F#
California, hear the windblown chimes
/G G#m C#7 F#
Californ-i-a, though you're far away, your love is here today

We're sittin' on a real celebration

Shoot the cannon, blow the horn

Love is born in California
