California Feeling
..............F..........Fmaj7.......F7...........Bb........F
I was walking down the beach at San Onofre
.............Dm7......G7..........Gm7/C...C7
It was such a beautiful day
..............................F..........Fmaj7..........F7
The wind was blowin' through my hair
Bb..................................G7
Sunlight chased my cares away
..................F.....Dm7....Gm7.....C7............F...Bb/F...F
And the sun dances in the morning sky
............................F..........Fmaj7......F7.....................Bb.....Bbm..F
When you're driving through L.A. watch the cliffs below
........Dm7...............G7..........................Gm7/C..C7
On beautiful Laguna's Three Arch Bay
...............................F..........Fmaj7.........F7
The wind was blowin' through my hair
Bb.................................G7
Sunlight chased my cares away
..................F.....Dm7......Gm7..............C7...........F...Bbm/F...F
And the sun dances through the morning sky
Bbm..........................F
California feelin', California feelin',
Bbm...........................F....Dm7..Gm7..C7
California feelin', California feelin',
............................F..........Fmaj7.........F7.................Bb.............F
When you're down in New York City and the sky turns gray
..............Dm7.................G7..........Gm7/C...C7
Nearly froze think of Californ-i-a
F......Fmaj7................F7
Ah, ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
Bb...........................G7...........
F....Dm7....Gm7....C7....F
Do doo doo doo doo doo ah
Bbm..........................F...........................Bbm
California feelin', California feelin', California feelin'
F...............................Bbm.....................F....Dm7....Gm7....C7
California feelin', California feelin'
F......................F7
Look at the orange groves
Bb.................................................G7
And taste a grapefruit from a grapefruit tree
F........................................Dm7...................Gm7..C7....F
Feel the loveliness and beauty of that California feeling

Brian's Back (Mike Love)
D...............................Em7....................................................A7...D
Teenage gamblers sittin' in a Rambler listenin' to the radio
.......................G.......................A7...............D.....................Bm7
And then standing in the grandstand following the gameplan
E7........................................A7
Watching life's plays unfold
D.......................................Em7......................................A7.........D
You fell in love with a pretty cheerleader I even married one
..................G.................A7...............D.............Bm7
And we once rode a cab out in Salt Lake City now
E7..........................................A7
Comin' up with "Fun Fun Fun"
.............................D........Em7...............................................A7.......D
They say that Brian is back, well I've known him for oh so
long
....................G..A7.....D....Bm7
They say Brian is back
...............E7.....................................A7
Well I never knew that he was gone
.............................D.........Em7.......................................A7............D
Still they say "Brian is back" I know he's had his ups
and downs
.............................G..A7......D....Bm7
Well they say "Brian is back"
...................Em7.........................A7.......D
But in my heart he's always been around
D.....................................Em7......................................................................................A7..........D
I still remember them soundin' sweet and tender singin'
"Danny Boy" on Grandma's lap
........................G............A7............................D................Bm7
And those harmony highs could bring tears to my eyes
.....................E7............................A7
I guess I'm just a sentimental sap
D..............................................Em7..................................................A7..........D
"Good Vibrations" caused such a sensation not to
mention ol' Pet Sounds
..................G..................A7..................D...............Bm7
And we traveled the world as the banners unfurled
...........................E7.................................A7
I guess you'd have to say we got around

And through the eyes of the hawk you can see it there, the
mountain lion's lair

Headin' for the Big Sur valley at last, racin' fast across
Lighthouse Flats
