#Someone requested tab for this one - It's all based on pretty simple chords,
#so I'm just going to give the chord shapes for most of it.

E-----3-5s7---7s5-3-5-0-3

VERSE:
(each chord is strummed on the 2 and 4 beats for most of the verse)
California tumbles into the sea
Soon we gonna ......... back in Annadale (?)
Tried to warn you 'bout doin what you did before
But I can't seem to get to you through the US mail Well I
Hear the whistle but we can't go we're gonna
Take a ride to Mexico I say
Oh No
Guadalahara won't do Well I
Did not think the girl would be so rude and I'm
Never going back to my old school
Rhythmic riff-thing:
D---7----9--7---7--9-9----7-9-7-9----}
A---5----7--7---7--9-9----5-7-5-7----}- Play three times
E-----------5---5--7-7---------------}

Just after the riff above, before the last verse (I think) there's
a bit more instrumental stuff with saxes.
The chords for this are:
Chord Shapes:
Any Queries - let me know! (But ignore my words even *I* know there
