California Via Tennessee Lyrics

Introduction: (G, C, G) (4x)
I went to California via Tennessee I went to California see what
I could see I saw the surf break right and the earth break free
and the high wave crash right into zuma beach (G,C,G) (4x) I met a girl with
a dirt floor charm we sung with sand in our teeth all night long
I licked the grains from her ear taste the heat in my mouth she
turned the screws in my knees and put the breaks in my songs
N/C D C G
breaks in my songs I'm alright what you gonna do I went to
California to get away from you I'm alright seen all I got to
G N/C G
see get into California via Tennessee Tennessee (G, C, G)(4x) it could be a
little money maker it could be evangelism it could be that I'm
nothin' but a tourist and I can't get any traction in Los
Angeles I'm alright what you gonna do I went to California to
get away from you I'm alright seen all I got to see I sleep in
N/C G
California and dream in Tennessee Tennessee if your lookin' for
grace you're in the wrong F at !*in' place I am a land mine and I hit a
bomb shell I need a wide open space and a good lookin' face I am a tourist and
you be my good time I'm alright what you gonna do I went to
California to get away from you I'm alright I'm on central time
holdin' strangers' hands across state lines I'm alright what you
gonna do I went to California 'cause I'm better than you I'm
alright seen all I got to see I chewed up California and spit
out Tennessee Tennessee Breaks in my songs
