Going To California chords by Led Zeppelin (Ver. 2)

Tuning: Standard

Difficulty: Advanced


G    Gbm     E    D
Spent my days with a woman unkind,
G    Gbm    E   D
Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine.
G     Gbm   E     D
Made up my mind to make a new start,
G      Gbm       E   D
Going to california with an aching in my heart.
G   Gbm        E    D
Someone told me theres a girl out there
   G     Gbm        D
With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair.
G    Bm      D    Bm
Took my chances on a big jet plane,
G       Bm          G  D
Never let them tell you that theyre all the same.
G     Gbm     E    D
The sea was red and the sky was grey,
G      Gbm       E  D
Wondered how tomorrow could ever follow today.
  G        Gbm         E      D
The mountains and the canyons started to tremble and shake
    G       Gbm E   D
As the children of the sun began to awake.
Dm
Seems that the wrath of the gods

Got a punch on the nose and it started to flow;
          A7
I think I might be sinking.
Dm
Throw me a line if I reach it in time

Ill meet you up there where the path
         A7
Runs straight and high.
G    Gbm    E   D
To find a queen without a king;
   G      Gbm     E   D
They say she plays guitar and cries as she sings.
G      Gbm     E      D
Ride a white mare in the footsteps of dawn
G       Gbm     E       D
Tryin to find a woman whos never, never, never been born.
G       Bm     D
Standing on a hill in my mountain of dreams,
G     Bm       G      D
Telling myself its not as hard, hard, hard as it seems.
