Dani California - Red Hot Chili Peppers
1.
AmG
Getting born in the state of Mississippi,
DmAm
papa was a copper, and her mama was a hippy.
G
In Alabama she would swing a hammer,
DmAm
price you got to pay when you break the panorama.
GDmAm
She never knew that there was anything more than poor.
GDmAm
What in the world does your company take me for?
2.
Black bandanna, sweet Louisiana
robbing on a bank in the state of Indiana.
She's a runner, rebel and a stunner,
on her merry way saying baby, watcha gonna?
Looking down the barrel of a hot metal forty-five.
Just another way to survive.
Ref.
FCDm
California, rest in peace.
GFCDm
Simultaneous release.
GFCDm
California, show your teeth.
GFCDm
She's my priestess I'm your priest, yeah, yeah, yeah.
3.
She's a lover, baby, and a fighter,
should've seen it coming when I 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 stealing another breath.
I love my baby to death.

Who knew the other side of you?
HmGD
Who knew that others died to prove?
HmGD
Too true to say goodbye to you,
Hm
too true to say, say, say.
4.
Pushed the fader, gifted animator
one for the now, and eleven for the later.
Never made it up to Minnesota,
North Dakota man wasn't gunnin' for the quota.
Down in the Badlands she was saving the best for last,
it only hurts when I laugh.
Pre.
E7
Gone too fast.
