It Never Rains In California
1972 by Albert Hammond & M.Hazlewood


       hm                E           A
Got on border west bound seven-forty-seven,
       hm             E             A
Didn't think before decided what to do.
         hm          E
Oh, they talk of opertunity,
A             f#m          hm       E        A
TV-breaks and movies, rank through, sure and true.

         hm             E        A
Seems it never rains in Southern California,
           hm               E            A
Seems I've often heard that kind of talk before.
         hm           E            A               f#m
It never rains in California, but girl, don't they warn you
     hm   E      A
it warms, man it warms

       E                   E
Out of work, I'm out of my head,
            A
Out of self respect, I'm out of breath.
           hm              E                A
I'm on the run down on the fair, I wanna go home.

         hm           E            A               f#m
It never rains in California, but girl, don't they warn you
     hm   E      A
it warms, man it warms

         hm                  E              A
Will you tell the folks back home, I nearly made it,
       hm               E                 A
Eight offers, but don't know which one to take.
             hm                    E
Please don't tell'em how you found me,
A                     f#m
Don't tell'em how you found me.
        hm     E         A
Gimme a breath, gimme a breath.

         hm             E        A
Seems it never rains in Southern California,
           hm               E            A
Seems I've often heard that kind of talk before.
         hm           E            A               f#m
It never rains in California, but girl, don't they warn you
      hm  E      A
it warms, man it warms
