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

California, hear the windblown chimes
