Well, Beast coast girls are hip, I really B9dig those styles they wear
And the sEouthern girls with the way they talk
They knock me F#out when I’m down there
The mBidwest farmers’ daughters really mB9ake you feel alright
And the nEorthern girls with the way they kiss
They keep their F#boyfriends warm at night
Easiest melody line for me to follow starts F# G# B on “wish they all”
I Bwish they all could C#m7be California
I Awish they all could Bm7be California
I Gwish they all could Am7be California Bgirls
The BWest coast has the sunshine, and the B9girls all get so tanned
I dig a EFrench bikini on Hawaiian Island dolls
By a F#palm tree in the sand
I bBeen all around this great big world and I’ve sB9een all kinds of girls
Yea but EI couldn’t wait to get back in the states
Back to the F#cutest girls in the world
I Bwish they all could C#m7be California
I Awish they all could Bm7be California
I Gwish they all could Am7be California Bgirls
Two-measure breakdown to high keys only
BF#
I Bwish they all could be California
I C#m7wish they all could be California
I Bwish they all could be California
I C#m7wish they all could be California
Repeat to fade
