[Verse]
E A E
Lately, I've been low
E A E
Things been moving slow
E A E
Could not tell you why
E A E
Maybe too much paradise
A (rest)
Something came a-calling and I knew this time I had to go
E A E
E A E
Dreamers down the road
E A E
I wound up in a land of gold
E A E
I was headstrong with an open eye
E A E
And a wondrous alibi???
A (rest)
Heading toward the canyon, I abandoned everything I owned
E A E
[Chorus]
E
California, I don't even know you
A E
(You're) Takin me away from home
E
Old Magnolia, I'll never get over you
A E
Feeling's running straight to my bones
B A E
Someday I'll be coming home
B A D
Someday I'll be coming home
(rest)
With a cast Iron Soul
[Instrumental]
E A E (2x)
(lead guitar)
[Verse]
E A E
It was a winding mountain road
E A E
Where the sun shines and the air is cold
E A E
Another tired town
E A E
Where them old folks hang around
A (rest)
They look me in the eye and try to pass me down what they know
E A E
[Chorus]
E
California, I don't even know you
A E
(You're) Takin me away from home
E
Old Magnolia, I'll never get over you
A E
Feeling's running straight to my bones
B A E
Someday I'll be coming home
B A D
Someday I'll be coming home
(rest)
With a cast Iron Soul
[Instrumental]
E A E (2x)
(lead guitar)
[Bridge] (2x)
E A E
I can see the water
E A E
I can taste the sea
E A E
Keep on moving farther
E A E
(From) where I need to be
[Chorus]
E
California, I don't even know you
A E
(You're) Takin me away from home
E
Old Magnolia, I'll never get over you
A E
Feeling's running straight to my bones
B A E
Someday I'll be coming home
B A D
Someday I'll be coming home
(rest)
With a cast Iron Soul
[Outro]
E A E (2x)
