Here In California
By Dave Alvin

Capo 2
G
When I was young my mother told me
D Em
She said son take your time
C G
Don't fall in love too quickly
Am C
Before you know your mind
G
She held me around the shoulders
D Em
And in a voice soft and kind
C G
She said love can make you happy
Am G
And love can rob you blind
Chorus:
Am D G
Here in California
Am D Em
Fruit hangs heavy on the vines
C G
There's no gold, I thought I'd warn you
Am D G
And the hills turn brown in the summertime
Will I may learn to love you
But I can't say when
This morning we were strangers
Tonight we're only friends
But I'll take the time to know you
I'll take the time to see
There's nothing that I won't show you
If you take your time with me
Chorus
It’s an old familiar story
It’s an old familiar rhyme
To everything there is a season
To every purpose there's a time
Time to love and come together
Time when love longs for a name
A time for questions that we can't answer
But we ask them just the same
Chorus
There's no gold I thought I'd warn you
But the hills turn brown in the summertime
