I Couldn’t Live In Southern California Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I c[G]ould [D]n't[A][D]
[G]live in
[A]Southern
California [D]I d[G]on't know
of [A]nothing I could [D]do
I could[G]n't live in
[A]Southern
Califor[D]nia, babe
[Bm]Not [G]unless I lived[A] there with [D]you
We went [G]down to
Lagun[A]a in the wint[D]ertime
The shops [G]were warm,
the [A]brandy tasted [D]good
You know [G]you said you nev
[A]er could stand [D]tourists
And you [G]wouldn't be a tourist if you [A]could
Do you [G]remember that [A]we saw a [D]rainbow breaking
[G]over the moun[A]tains and [D]the waves?
And [G]even though they [A]said it would be rain[D]ing,
we [G]found ourselves a chilly sunny [A]day.
The [G]mountains are so [A]high
I [D]feel that I could fly
Looking [G]down into the val[A]ley be[D]low
The clear
[G]Kentucky str[A]eams,
they are [D]al ways in my dreams
I [G]think that [A]is something you
should [D]know[G][D][A][D]
I [G]don't think that [A]I could drive [D]the freeway
I [G]get lost, [A]and you know
how [D]that feels
Someday [G]I think I'd l[A]ike
to paint a sea[D]scape
If they [G]ever get the ocean to stand [A]still
The [G]old man with the beard
[A]talked to the [D]seagulls
The young [G]men in their [A]prime
were playing [D]ball
Some [G]coyotes on [A]the prair
ie chased the [D]rabbits
And we prom[G]ised that we'd
come back in [A]the fall
But I [G]couldn't live in
[A]Southern
Californi[D]a
I [G]don't know of [A]nothin' I could [D]do
I could[G]n't live in
[A]Southern
Californi[D]a, babe
[Bm]Not [G]unless I live [A]there with[D] you
[G][D][A]
