CALIFORNIA - Radical Something
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tabbed by: Joe Doul
Tuning: Standard
************************************
Intro/Verse/Chorus: Bm, D, A, E
e|-2--5--5--7-| B|-3--7--5--9-| G|-4--7--6--9-| D|-4--7--7--9-| A|-2--5--7--7-| E|-------5----|

For the outro, Alex changes from using barre chords to open chords: Bm, D, A, E
e|-2--2--0--0-| B|-3--3--2--0-| G|-4--2--2--1-| D|-4--0--2--2-| A|-2-----0--2-| E|----------0-|

In terms of strumming pattern, the easiest way is to strum each chord downward
four times with a palm slap between each downward stroke, e.g. for the first
chord Bm, it would be:
E|-2-x-2-x-2-x-2-x| B|-3-x-3-x-3-x-3-x| G|-4-x-4-x-4-x-4-x| D|-4-x-4-x-4-x-4-x| A|-2-x-2-x-2-x-2-x| E|---x-------x---x|

I need some fun vibes and a couple drops of sunshine

Good enough pick and choose the always over sometimes
A
Pour a little out we like to live a lot
E
And I make better decisions when I'm hot
Bm
We're chasing dreams from our seats at the hang out spot
D
No plan for the night, but we all stay locked
A
Right in, nice grin, uh uhhh no thunder or lightning
E
Just the view of the ocean and a sexy ass light skin girl
Bm
I'm goin back, I'm goin back
D
And I'm headed for my paradise, my paradise
A E
Where I can sit and right songs, eat a little food and we can share our lives
Bm
California got me thinking I should really take it easy
D
Out back with my crew and some girls if you need me
A
So when I say welcome home and you ask what do I mean
*** no guitar ***
I mean you visit and you never wanna leave Come find me
Chorus:
Bm D
How do I get out of here?
A E
Back to where I belong
Bm D A E
California, California, baby I'm coming home
Verse:
Bm (just strum once)
So sweet, so sweet Californ-I-a

Where the fruits all fall from my family tree
A
I need my skateboard a drink and a long stretch of pavement
E
Pickin up my pace and I'm back to the basics
Bm
Yeah, travel well on my element
D A
Gone for a second and every time I leave you know I'm always second guessing it
E
Thinking ill regret it but you know I'm comin back in the end and I've accepted it
Bm D
I'm feeling feeling all feeling all feeling all feeling all golden
A
We're skatin on the sidewalk
E
And you can hear us all hear us all hear us all rollin
Bm
It's so damn hot outside
A
And missed flights are the only things that stoppin me from tryin to kick it tropically
D
Cuz out here we don't just own the sun

Us California kids got a monopoly
Lets go, come on

Bm D
How do I get out of here?

*** At this point, the guitar stops playing ***
I'm coming home I'm coming home
Cuz I been gone for way too long
I'm coming home I'm coming home
Cuz I been gone for way too long
*** At this point, guitar resumes, but Alex changes from barre chords to open chords of Bm, D, A, E) ***

And these Cali girls Cali girls Cali girls Cali girls

Are all just so damn fine
