G         Em          G        Em
I'm gonna walk two, three, four down the street
G              Em            G           Em          C     D
Singing to the sidewalk as I keep to the beat of the cars
Of the cars

          G         Em          G        Em
I'm gonna watch the pavement to skip the cracks
G              Em              G        Em     C      D
Careful not to step on them or break my mama's back
Or go to the moon

C     D
So we begin
 G             Em
Another day in California
C          D
Be good or sin
      G              Em
Don't go right there I tried to warn ya
C             D
Nothing could be
G             Em
Prettier than this
G              Em
Walking in Los Angeles
C   D  
But who does it?

          G    Em           G         Em
I'm gonna wave hello to the friends I meet
G                   Em               G             Em          C      D
The city seems much smaller when you travel by the side of the street
Just watch for the borders

      G      Em          G     Em
Gonna sing a song to the meter maid
G               Em         G          Em          C      D
Tell her it's a holiday or maybe that there's a parade
So forget about quarters

C     D
So we begin
 G             Em
Another day in California
C          D
Be good or sin
      G              Em

Walking in Los Angeles
C   D  
But who does it?

          C     D         G              Em
I wear my fancy shoes and hop with every step
C            D              G                Em      
From heel to toe I mean I'm marching with me soul between them
C                 D
Stepping down the walk of fame
     G                     Em                 C      D
I'll skip the stars filled with dead people's names
And I'll keep walking

      G      Em        G        Em
Gonna sing a song to a homeless man
G                 Em           G    Em       C   D
I'll take the melody and he'll bang on a tin can 
that rings through the city

          G       Em         G   Em
And we'll march together for 3-4-4, 
    G                 Em              G                Em       C   D
the homeless man, the meter maid, and me marching like never before
We'll wave like we're pretty

C     D
So we begin
 G             Em
Another day in California
C          D
Be good or sin
      G              Em
