CALIFORNIA SHAKE
As recorded by Margo Price
(From the 2024 Album LIKE SOMEONE I KNOW: A CELEBRATION OF MARGO GURYAN)
[Intro]
N.C.
[Verse 1]
Am G D/F# D
Melon-rising California sun
Am G D/F# D
Drifting in a day not yet begun
Am G D/F# D
Six o'clock and peaceful and serene
Dm G D
Floating in a Technicolor scene
[Verse 2]
F Em
Something nearly peaceful in the sound
F Em
Rising from the San Andreas ground
D# A#
Over ground it starts to feel strange
D# Dm
Underground, it starts to rearrange
[Pre-Chorus]
F D
You'd better get up
G E/G# Am
And run for a doorway
[Chorus]
Am
No time for thinking
Am
Your life is at stake
Am
Everyone's doing the California Shake
F Dm Am
California Shake
[Verse 3]
G D/F# D
Non-believing, everybody waits
Am G D/F# D
Shifting on the continental plates
Am G D/F# D
Thunder far below the ocean floor
Am G D/F# D
Damned impartial sub-terrestrial war
