Am Dm
Going to calfornia,
Am Dm
To live in the summer sun
Am Dm
The streets are made of silver,
Am Dm
Iʼm like a rabbit on the run
Am Dm
Philadelphia freedom
Am Dm
Well, itʼs not like you have heard
Am Dm
The city of brotherly love
Am Dm
Is full of pain and hurt
Chorus:
Em Dm
Iʼm going to California
Am Dm
To find my pot of gold
Am Dm
Corruption on every corner
Am Dm
Hustlers selling sweets
Am Dm
baby is home crying
Am Dm
While her mommaʼs on the streets
Am Dm
Every bodys dying
Am Dm
Have heard the news today
Am Dm
A women in the Philly is mourninʼ
Am Dm
A bullet took another son away
Chorus:
Em Dm
Iʼm going to California
Am Dm
Iʼm going far far away
Am Dm
Iʼm going to California
Am Dm
To resurrect my soul
Am Dm
The sun is always shining
Am Dm
Or at least thats what Iʼm told
Chorus:
Em Dm
Iʼm going to California
Am Dm
To find a better life for me
Em Dm
Iʼm going to California
Am Dm
Iʼll write and tell you what I see
Em Dm
Iʼm going to California
Am Dm Am
Somebody say a prayer for me
