Am G Getting born in the state of Mississippi, Dm Am Her Poppa was a copper and her Momma was a hippie Am G In Alabama she would swing a hammer, Dm Am Price you gotta pay when you break the panorama Am G Dm Am She never knew that there was anything more than poor, Am G Dm Am What in the world 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, what you gonna—?" Lookin' down the barrel of a hot metal .45 Just another way to survive Chorus: F C Dm California, Rest In Peace, G F C Dm Simultaneous release, G F C Dm California, show your teeth, G F C Dm She's my priestess, I'm your priest, yeah, yeah She's a lover, baby and a fighter Shoulda 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 Chorus Bm G D F# Who knew the other side of you?
