California Nights

chorus chord progression):

        harpsichord:

        [Fm]/ / / /  / / / / [F#] / / / /  / / / /

        (bass enters)

        [E]/ / / /  / / / /  [C]/ / / /  / / /[N.C.] /

        [Dm7]Alon[C]g the [Cmaj7]sand
        [Dm7]Let'[C]s walk the s[Em]hores tog[Am]ether, now
        [Dm7]Yes,[C] hand in[Cmaj7] hand
        [Dm7]It's[C] gonna [Em]be fair w[Am]eather now
        W[Em]hen the s[Am]tars come out
         [Dm7] [N.C.]        [G] [bass]         [C]
        Stop (stop!)  to count them in the sky

        L[Fm]ong California n[F#]ights
        When I'm walkin' with y[E]ou
        Hand in hand by the sh[C]ore
        Yes, I l[Fm]ove California ni[F#]ghts
        At the beach where we'd s[E]wim
        With the tide rollin' [C]in

        And there we'll be
        Beneath the midnight sky above
        Just you and me
        And we will whisper words of love
        While the firelight
        Soft (soft)-ly flickers in the sand

        Warm California nights
        With the breeze blowin' in
        The time for love to begin
        I would miss California nights
        If I went on my way
        Thinkin' now that I'll stay

        [Dm7/G] / / / /[Cmaj7/G]  / / / /

        Ooh, [Dm7/G]baby    [Cmaj7/G]
        Love you,[Dm7/G] baby   [Cmaj7/G]
        Mmm, [Dm7/G]baby

        Long California nights
        Always close as a kiss
        Nothin' sweeter than this
        And we'll spend California nights
        Always close as a kiss [fade]
