C#m
I'm a tangled tiger and
I want to rip it all to shreds
   A              E B7
So I can ask it why
C#m
She's a loaded cobra and
                                  A  E B7
she wanted to be with me for the ride
C#m
In a Sunday diner,
                                        A
I'm reminded there's no finer place to kiss
                E  B7
Than one like this

Chorus:
     A           C#m                   B7
But babe, I can see what's right with you
                          A
White braids and pillow chair
          C#m                 F#7
I could spend my nights with you
  B7
This pussy willow
 A           C#m              B7
Babe, I can see all sides of you
  B7                      A
White braids and pillow chair
          C#m              F#7
I don't know what I would do
 B7
Without your pillow

She's a Bobby Darin singing
to the fish and herring sacrifice
Oh, that's her knife
There's a Karmann Ghiah parked out
back and we believe it is alive (Oh)
You can see the river runnin'
through my devastated concrete eyes
They don't deny

Chorus:
But babe, I can see what's right with you
White braids and pillow chair
I could spend my nights with you
This pussy willow
Babe, I can see all sides of you
White braids and pillow chair
I don't know what I would do

 E7          A
California blue
 B       E    B        G#7
Sing to you things to do
 E7          A
California blue
 B       C#m
Sing to you
 E7            A
Deep Ventura sky
 B       E   B        G#7
Rolling by, rolling why
 E7            A
Deep Ventura sky
 B       C#m
Rolling by
 E7            A
Santa Cruz in June
B        E    B        G#7
Either blue, surf the moon
 E7            A
Santa Cruz in June
 B        C#m
Surf the moon
 E7            A
San Francisco Bay
 B       E    B         G#7
Safe to say, paved the way
 E7            A
San Francisco Bay
 B         C#m
Paved the way
