Intro:

C#  D#m7  E  F#, C# (n.E)


Verse 1:
       C#
Like a sound you hear,
             D#m7
That lingers in your ear,
        E
But you can't forget,
     F#          C#   D#m7       E  F#
From sundown to sun-set, now.
         C#
It's all in the air,
            D#m7
You hear it everywhere,
          E
No matter what you do,
     F#            C#       D#m7   E
It's gonna grab a hold on you.
     F#      C#m    A
Cali-fornia soul,
           G#7
California soul.



Bridge 1:
             D#7
They say the sun comes up,
      F#
Every morning now,
           D#7
And if you listen,
              F#
Oh so careful-ly.

    C#          C#maj7
The winds that ride,
       F#
On the high time,
D#7               F7
 Whistle in melo-dy.



Chorus 1:
(F7)
 And so the people,
C#           C#maj7
 Started to sing,
                   A#m7
And that's how the surf,
              D#7
Gave birth un-told,
              C#m    A
To California soul,
           C#     D#m7  E  F#
California soul.



Verse 2:
         C#
When you hear the beat,
          D#m7
You wanna pat your feet,
           E
And you've got to move,
          F#
'Cos it's really,
C#               D#m7  E  F#
 Such a groove.
       C#
Puts a brand new kind,
            D#m7
Of thinkin' in your mind,
        E
And you can't go wrong,
            F#
'Cos you're groovin',
C#        D#m7   E
 All day long.
    F#      C#m    A
California soul,
           G#7
California soul.


Bridge 2:
             D#7
They had the melody,
        F#
And the beat,
       D#7
But it still didn't,
         F#
Seem com-plete.
               C#
Until they saw two,
C#maj7   F#
 Lovers kissin',
     D#7
They knew just,
         F7
What was missin'.



Chorus 1:
(F7)
 So happy they were,
C#            C#maj7
 Rockin' and reelin',
               A#m7
Because they'd added,
            D#7
That lovin' feeling.
              C#m    A
To California soul,
           C#     D#m7  E  F#
California soul.


Coda:
       C#
Like a sound you hear,
             D#m7         E  F#
That lingers in your ear.
