Intro:
Am G Dm Am x2

Am                   G                  
Getting born in the state of Mississippi
Dm                    Am               
Papa was a copper and mama was a hippie
Am           G                       
In Alabama   she would swing a hammer
Dm                            Am                
Price you gotta pay  when you break the panorama
Am         G                  Dm       Am            
She never knew that there was anything more than poor
Am          G               Dm      Am         
What in the world does your company take me for

Am               G             
Black bandanna, sweet Louisiana
Dm                       Am              
Robbin' on a bank in the state of Indiana
Am              G                  
She's a runner, rebel and a stunner
Dm                      Am                
On her merry way saying baby whatcha gonna
Am               G           Dm        Am        
Lookin' down the barrel of a hot metal forty five
Am           G         Dm  
Just another way to survive

Chorus:

    F           C  Dm        G  F   C     Dm   
California rest in peace   simultaneous release
  G F           C    Dm   
California show your teeth
      G   F             C     Dm                
she's my priestess, I'm your priest   yeah, yeah

Bridge:
Am G Dm Am x2

Am              G                 
She's a lover   baby and a fighter
Dm                             Am                   
Shoulda seen it coming when it got a little brighter
Am               G              
With a name like Dani California
    Dm                      Am                  
The day was gonna come when I was gonna mourn ya
Am       G                Dm       Am           
A little loaded, she was stealing another breath
Am        G       Dm   
I love my baby to death

Repeat Chorus

Bm           G     F#m          Bm
Who knew the other side of you?   
Bm            G      F#m            Bm
Who knew that others died to prove    
Bm          G        F#m         Bm
Too true to say good bye to you    
Bm                         Am
Too true, too sad sad sad    

Am             G              
Push the fader gifted animator
Dm                   Am                 
One for the now and eleven for the later
Am             G              
Never made it  up to Minnesota
Dm                      Am                   
North Dakota man  was a gunnin' for the quota
Am          G                Dm         Am           
Down in the badlands she was saving the best for last
Am      G            Dm               Em  
It only hurts when I laugh   gone too fast

Repeat Chorus x2
