Intro:  Am  D  G  Em    Am  D  G 
 
        Am                D G 
Got on board a west bound 747 
        Am             D             G 
Didn't think before decidin' what to do 
          Am           D       G             Em 
All that talk of opportunity, ?tv breaks and movies? 
     Am  D            G 
Ring true, sure rang true 


[Refrão]
         Am              D            G       Em 
Seems it never rains in southern California 
          Am                 D               G 
Seems I've often heard that kind of talk before 
          Am           D 
It never rains in California 
     G                Em 
But girl, don't they warn ya

But it pours, man it pours 
 
 
            Am               D 
I'm outta work, I'm outta my head 
                G               Em 
Outta self-respect, I'm outta bread 
           Am            D 
I'm underloved and underfed 
            G 
I wanna go home 
 
          Am           D 
It never rains in California 
     G                Em 
But girl, don't they warn ya 
       Am    D         G 
But it pours, man it pours

Will ya tell the folks back home, I nearly made it? 
    Am                 D                 G 
Had offers, but don't know which one to take
