                      Am  G  F  G            E4  E7
All the leaves are brown   and the sky is gray
 F               C  E  Am    F        E4  E7
I've been for a walk    on a winter's day
                  Am  G  F  G             E4  E7
I'd be safe and warm    if I was in L.A.
               Am  G  F  G               E4  E7
California dreamin' on such a winter's day

                   Am  G  F  G                  E4  E7
Stopped in to a church     I passed along the way
 F                    C    E  Am     F          E4  E7
Well I got down on my knees   and I pretend to pray
E4                           Am  G  F
You know the preacher liked the cold
G                  E4  E7
He knows I'm gonna stay
               Am  G  F  G              E4  E7
California dreamin' on such a winter's day

                      Am  G  F  G             E4  E7
All the leaves are brown   and the sky is gray
 F               C  E  Am    F        E4  E7
I've been for a walk    on a winter's day
               Am  G  F  G               E4  E7
If I didn't tell her  I could leave today
               Am  G  F  G              E4  E7
California dreamin' on such a winter's day
               Am  G  F  G              E4  E7
California dreamin' on such a winter's day
               Am  G  F  G              E4  E7
California dreamin' on such a winter's day
