Capo 4th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

(Original Key: )

Intro

Verse 1

Like a sound you hear, that lingers in your ear,

But you can't forget, from sundown to sun-set, now.

It's all in the air, you hear it everywhere,

No matter what you do; it's gonna grab a hold on you.

Cali-fornia soul, California soul.

Bridge 1

They say the sun comes up, every morning now,

And if you listen, oh, so careful-ly.

The winds that ride, on the high time, whistle in melo-dy.

Chorus 1

And so the people started to sing,

And that's how the surf gave birth, un-told,

To California soul, California soul.

Verse 2

When you hear the beat, you wanna pat your feet,

And you've got to move, 'cos it's really such a groove.

Puts a brand new kind of thinkin' in your mind,

And you can't go wrong, 'cos you're groovin' all day long.

Cali-fornia soul, California soul.

Bridge 2

They had the melody and the beat,

But it still didn't seem com-plete.

Until they saw two lovers kissin';

They knew just what was missin'.

Chorus 1

So happy they were, rockin' and reelin',

Because they'd added that lovin' feeling.

To California soul, California soul.

Coda

Like a sound you hear, that lingers in your ear.

Outro
