G        D             Bm 
Katie's gone to California 
G           D                    Am 
She read there's something in the air 
G            D                     Bm 
She's got her pockets full of Dixie 
Am              C               G 
She just might make it halfway there 

G         D               Bm 
Katie's gone to California 
G          D              Am 
To see the ocean fine and red 
G          D                Bm 
She's as fragile as begonias  
Am      C                G 
Katie's gone to California 
Am       C                G 
I think he might be going there 

D                                  Em 
Didn't speak his mind the way he wanted 
C                                   G 
He told me time was running out 
D                              Em 
Oh he said that he had called her 
C                               D 
You know we all had our doubts 

D                              Em 
I heard her family didn't like him 
C                                G 
Well it's only chance they ever met 
D                                Em 
Her daddy said he talked like Nixon 
C                                D 
Now there's a line I can't forget 

G        D               Bm 
Katie's gone to California 
G                  D           Am 
She thinks she's got the Do Re Mi 
G          D                  Bm 
Got her pockets full of Dixie 
Am               C              G 
She just might make it to Moline 

D                                  Em 
I should've known first time I saw her 
C                              G 
Their introduction I regret 
D                              Em 
We all worried he was lonesome 
C                                  D 
Don't blame yourself for how things went 

D                                   Em 
We all watched them on their first date 
C                                    G 
They never even knew that we were there 
D                               Em 
This is a one show town, honey 
C                                D 
We just couldn't help but stare 

G        D               Bm 
Katie's gone to California 
G            D           Am 
To see the ocean fine and red 
G           D             Bm 
She's as fragile as begonias 
Am      C                 G 
Katie's gone to California 
Am       C                  G

D                                  Em 
There's Olly walking through the doorway 
C                                   G 
Flag him over, let's talk to him 
D                                 Em 
I hope he's doing fine for love sake  
C                                D 
He'll pass her by on highway ten 

D                              Em 
Sometimes friends with good intentions 
C                             G 
Can drive a good man to his end 
D                                   Em 
These aren't the first dreams ever wasted 
C                        G 
We just wish it wasn't him
