         (D)         (A)         (E)


  Real easy song, strum;


  VERSE 1


  A
  I'd like to rest my heavy head tonight
  E
  On a bed of California stars
  D
  I'd like to lay my weary bones tonite
  A
  On a bed of California stars


  VERSE 2(same chords)

  I'd love to feel your hand touching mine
  And tell me why I must keep working on
  Yes, i'd give my life to la my head tonight
  On a bed of California stars


  VERSE 3

  I'd like to dream my troubles are away
  On a bed of Califrnia stars
  Jump up from a starbed and make another day
  Underneath my California stars


  VERSE 4

  They hang like grapes on vines that shine
  And warm the lovers glass like friendly wine
  So, I'd give this world just to dream a dream with you
  On our bed of California stars



  "GO WEST PARADISE IS THERE YOU'LL HAVE ALL THAT YOU CAN EAT OF MILK AND HONEY OVER THERE"
