Lyrics

[00:30.50] Driven through the canyons I was
[00:32.50] Dazzled by the mountains and we didn\'t go very far
[00:41.50] Close enough to heaven if you
[00:43.50] Climb up on a mansion you too can swing like a star
[00:51.50] I tried to get inside I bought a
[00:53.50] Ticket with my pride and I was gone right out of my head
[01:02.50] I went out for a ride to go
[01:04.50] Across a great divide and I ended up at home instead
[01:12.50] California
[01:18.50] I thought I should see
[01:23.50] Now I\'m back home, yeah
[01:28.50] With twelve little pieces of me
[01:44.50] I was just a passenger a
[01:46.50] Rider on the tremors that were shaking all our beds at night
[01:54.50] A visitor a stranger thought I
[01:56.50] Might pass for a regular if I just kept out of the lights
[02:04.50] Tore my heart out from my chest
[02:07.50] Mixed it up in my mind with the best freshest pieces of my soul
[02:15.50] Chose the ones I loved the most
[02:18.50] Drove \'em all down to the coast
[02:20.50] Threw \'em in a big black hole
[02:26.50] California
[02:32.50] I thought I should see
[02:37.50] Now I\'m back home, yeah
[02:41.50] With twelve little pieces of me
[02:47.50] California
[02:53.50] I dreamed I would find
[02:58.50] Some kinda sorta pick-me-up
[03:01.50] I got twelve little pieces of my mind
[03:29.50] California
[03:35.50] I thought I should see
[03:40.50] Now I\'m back home, yeah
[03:44.50] With twelve little pieces of me
[03:50.50] California
[03:56.50] I dreamed I would find
[04:01.50] Some kinda sorta pick-me-up
[04:05.50] I got twelve little pieces of my mind
