Red Hot Chili Peppers – Californication (Album: Californication (1999))

[ Am   | F    |  Am    | F  ]

Psychic spies from China, Try to steal your mind’s elation
Little girls from Sweden, Dream of silver screen quotations
[ C     | G    |  F    |  Dm  ]

And if you want these kind of dreams, It’s Californication

It’s the edge of the world, And all of western civilization
The sun may rise in the East, At least it settles in the final location
It’s understood that Hollywood, sells Californication

Pay your surgeon very well, To break the spell of aging
Celebrity skin is this your chin, Or is that war your waging
First born unicorn, Hard core soft porn

C:    C     |       G     |   Dm  | Am ||   C     |       G     |   Dm  | Am
        Dream of Californication,      Dream of Californication

Marry me girl be my fairy to the world, Be my very own constellation
A teenage bride with a baby inside, Getting high on information
And buy me a star on the boulevard, It’s Californication

Space may be the final frontier, But it’s made in a Hollywood basement
Cobain can you hear the spheres, Singing songs off station to station
And Alderon’s not far away, It’s Californication

Born and raised by those who praise control of population

Everybody’s been there, & I don’t mean on vacation
First born unicorn, Hard core soft porn..

(chorus)  (SOLO)
Destruction leads to a very rough road, But it also breeds creation
And earthquakes are to a girl’s guitar, They’re just another good vibration
And tidal waves couldn’t save the world, From Californication

Pay your surgeon very well, To break the spell of aging
Sicker than the rest, There is no test, But this is what you’re craving
First born unicorn, Hard core soft porn…

(chorus x2)
