(drum)  puis  Am  G  Dm  Am  x 2

Gettin' born in the state of Mississippi
Her Poppa was a copper and her Momma was a hippie
In Alabama, she was swingin' hammer
Price you gotta pay when you break the panorama

  She never knew that there was anything more than poor         w/ funky
  What in the world a-does your company take me for?

Black bandana, sweet Louisiana
Robbin' on a bank in the state of Indiana
She's a runner, rebel and a stunner
On her merry way, sayin' baby whatcha gonna?

  Lookin' down the barrel of a hot metal .45
                         Dm
  Just another way to survive

	F            C / Dm   (G)
    California, rest in peace
    Simultaneous release
    California, show your teeth
    She's my priestess, I'm your priest

Am  G  Dm  Am  x 2  w/ harmonies  c~ b~ d~ e~  c~ b~ d~ / a~

She's a lover, baby and a fighter                               w/ a~ g~ d~ a~
Should've seen her comin' when it got a little brighter
With a name like Dani California
Day was gonna come when I was gonna mourn ya

  A little loaded she was stealin' another breath
  I love my baby to death

    Refrain

      Bm           G     D       c♯
      Who knew the other side of you?
      Who knew what others died to prove?
      Too true to say goodbye to you
      Bm                    b  d  e  c \
      Too true, too sad sad sad

Push the fader, gifted animator                                 w/ e~ d~ f~ e~
One for the now and eleven for the later
Never made it up to Minnesota                                      e~ d~ f♯~ a~
North Dakota man was a-gunnin' for the quota

  Down in the badlands she was savin' the best for last
  It only hurts when I laugh
           E
  Gone too fast
