#From album, "She's the one"

I'm not born in America, so excuse me if the text is wrong. 

[D]

Cali[A]fornia has been [D]god to [G]me,
[D]hope you [A]don't fall in[D]to the [G]scene.
[D]Some[A]times you got to [D]trust your [G]self.
[Bm]It ain't [A]like [D]anywhere [G]else.
[Bm]It ain't [A]like [D]anywhere [G]else.

It's time to (         ?       )             
It's time we better hit the road.
I got work later on
[D]It's time we better hit the road. [G]

California has been god to me,
hope you don't fall into the scene.
Sometimes you got to save your self.
It ain't like anywhere else.
It ain't like anywhere else.

[D A D G]x3 [Bm A D G]x2

Sundown red sky,
No (buddies)? been around.
Sundown blue eyes,
I kind of like this part of town.

California has treated me god.
I pray to god that the hill don't fall.
Sometimes you got to trust your self.
It ain't like anywhere else.
It ain't like anywhere else.
It ain't like anywhere else. [D A D G D A D]
