      Gadd9/D
She's gone to California
                    Amadd9/E
To see the sun sink low.

I'm sure I'll have a letter soon,
                      G
At least I'm hoping so.

She'll draw a pastel picture
                        Amadd9/E
Of the desert she drove through,

And she'll draw herself with her mouth turned down,
                           Gadd9/D
Saying, "Someone misses you."

Doo-dn-dee, doo-dn-doo,
                  Amadd9/E   Gadd9/D
Someone misses you.

She's gone to California.
She seems to love it there.
She loves to wear those flowery shirts
And match them in her hair.
She draws her funny pictures,
I've learned to draw 'em too.
And I can draw myself with my mouth turned down,
Saying, "Someone misses you."
Doo-dn-dee, doo-dn-doo,
Someone misses you.

I dream of California.
She's up some canyon side
With boxes full of picture books,
All neatly stacked and tied.
As soon as I can make it,
I will go to Kennedy.
And I'll draw her face with her mouth turned up
With her biggest smile for me.
Doo-dn-doo, doo-dn-dee,
Her biggest smile for me.
Doo-dn-doo, doo-dn-dee,
Her biggest smile for me.
Doo-dn-doo, doo-dn-dee,
Her biggest smile for me.

(Words and music by Tom Paxton, 1972)
