[Verse 1]

G#m

Psychic spies from China

       E

Try to steal your mind's elation

G#m

Little girls from Sweden

         E

Dream of silver screen quotations

    B                 F#

And if you want these kind of dreams

     E        C#m

It's Californication

 

 

[Interlude]

| G#m    | E     | G#m    | E     |

 

 

[Verse 2]

        G#m

It's the edge of the world

           E

And all of western civilization

    G#m

The sun may rise in the East

            E

At least it settled in a final location

     B               F#

It's understood that Hollywood

      E        C#m

sells Californication

G#m

Pay your surgeon very well

   Emaj7

To break the spell of aging

  G#m

Celebrity skin, is this your chin?

   Emaj7

Or is that war you're waging?

G#m                Emaj7

   First born unicorn

G#m                Emaj7

   Hardcore soft porn

[Verse 3]

G#m

Marry me girl, be my fairy to the world

      E

Be my very own constellation

  G#m

A teenage bride with a baby inside

        E

Getting high on information

    B                    F#

And buy me a star on the boulevard

     E        C#m

It's Californication

 

 

[Interlude]

| G#m    | E     | G#m    | E     |

 

 

[Verse 4]

G#m

Space may be the final frontier

         E

But it's made in a Hollywood basement

    G#m

And Cobain can you hear the spheres

        E

Singing songs off station to station?

    B              F#

And Alderaan's not far away

     E        C#m

It's Californication

 

 

[Interlude]

  Ooooo - ooooh   Oooo -  ooooh

 

[Pre-Chorus 2]

G#m

Born and raised by those who praise

   Emaj7

Control of population

G#m

Everybody's been there and

   Emaj7

I don't mean on vacation

G#m                Emaj7

   First born unicorn

G#m                Emaj7

[Verse 5]

   G#m

Destruction leads to a very rough road

       E

But it also breeds creation

    G#m

And earthquakes are to a girl's guitar

        E

They're just another good vibration

    B                    F#

And tidal waves couldn't save the world

     E        C#m

From Californication

Pay your surgeon very well

   Emaj7

To break the spell of aging

G#m

Sicker than the rest, there is no test

    Emaj7

But this is what you're craving
