IT NEVER RAINS IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA (Albert Hammond)

 

G   /       /   /   D7  /  /  /    D7  /  /  /     G   /  /  / G/

        Got on a board a west bound 747

/    /     D7    /   /    /   D7  /    /      /     G / / / G /
Didn't think before deciding what to do

/      /    D7 /   /    /   D7 /  /  /   G   /    /     /    G     / 
All that talk of opportunities, TV breaks and movies

/       /     D7 /  /  / D7 / / /  G /  /  / G  /
It Rang true, sure rang true.

/            / D7  /    /      /  D7  /     /     /        G /  / / G /
Seems it never rains in Southern California

/           /     D7 /    /    /    D7  /    /     /          G   /    /   / G
Seems I've often heard that kind of talk before

/    /    /   D7  /   /      /   D7 /  /
It never rains in California

/ G /    /    /   G     /        /              / D7 / / / D7 / / / G / /  / G /  / / G
But girl, don't they warn ya that It pours             man it pours

 

 

/  /      /   D7   /   /          /        D7  / 
I’m out of work, I'm out of my head

       /      /        G /      /      /        G
Out of self respect I'm out of bread

/  /   /        D7 /     /     /     D7
I'm under loved I'm under fed

  /    /       /     G / /  /   G   /
I wanna go home

/      /     D7  /     /   /     D7   /   /
It never rains in California

/     G   /      /    /   G   /      /    /   D7 / / / D7 / / / G /   /  / G /  / /
But girl don't they warn ya, it pours, man it pours

 

Will you tell the folks back home I nearly made it
Had offers but don't know which one to take
Please don't tell them how you found me
Don't tell them how you found me give me a break
Give me a break
Seems it never rains in Southern California
Seems I've often heard that kind of talk before
It never rains in California
But girl, don't they warn ya
It pours man it pours
